Drawing on a wonderful range of examples—from magazine covers and supermarkets to public protests—Signals is the fascinating story of the world economy told in the language of everyday objects, places, and events. Malmgren explains why the size of chocolate bars, steaks, and apartments are shrinking, and why the increasing near misses between America's spy planes and the fighter jets of China and Russia are no coincidence.
