Life After Google: Interview with George Gilder

We are honored to have the opportunity to interview George Gilder for a second time. Writer, economist, technology advocate, and co-founder of the Discovery Institute. George’s latest book is Life After Google: The Fall of Big Data and the Rise of the Blockchain Economy. His 1981 international bestseller, Wealth and Poverty, advanced a practical and moral case for supply-side economics and capitalism during the early months of the Reagan Administration and made him President Reagan's most quoted living author. In 2013 he published Knowledge and Power: The Information Theory of Capitalism and How It is Revolutionizing Our World, which reformulated economics in terms of the information theory of Alan Turing and Claude Shannon. Ron says: “George Gilder is the most profound thinker I have ever encountered, and his insights of how an economy creates wealth permeate The Soul of Enterprise. Every century needs an Adam Smith, and Gilder is ours for the twentieth and twenty-first.”
