Why Nations Prosper: A Personal Exploration by Henrik Ekelund

America's prosperity isn't guaranteed. It's a choice. In Why Nations Prosper, entrepreneur Henrik Ekelund reveals why some nations thrive while others fail, from Vietnam's rice miracle to Botswana's escape from poverty. As American growth slows and populism rises, this journey across continents asks: Will we remember the forces that made us prosperous or abandon them?
