I liked “Abundance” by Klein and Thompson. We have tried, especially on climate, to solve problems without a pro-building/innovation agenda and have got basically nowhere. The only tries successes in housing and climate have come from abundance-type movements and projects. I think what they lack in the book is how to synthesize abundance with democracy and ensure its benefits don’t accumulate with the rich and powerful. I wrote a deeper review here:
