About the author

Clive Hamilton - BDeBooks
Clive Hamilton

Hamilton is an Australian academic who writes public argument rather than scholarship, and the two books come from different decades of it. Affluenza, written with Richard Denniss in 2005, argues that Australians were working harder to buy things that were not making them happier, and supplied enough of that debate's vocabulary to be quoted for years.
