‘Surprising! The book is easily readable for people without any economic background. Roadmap to Utopia really made me think about the idea that there is no alternative. Apparently, the alternatives are plentiful and the book really enthuses you to do things differently.’
Jan De Ridder – Reader giving the book 5 stars
‘Books on economics are generally a dull and technical affair. Roadmap to Utopia is the exception to that rule. I wholeheartedly laughed many times and the book really triggered me to think of the direction we want to steer our economic system’.
