The first comprehensive account of the growing dominance of the intangible economy
Early in the twenty-first century, a quiet revolution occurred. For the first time, the major developed economies began to invest more in intangible assets, like design, branding, R&D, and software, than in tangible assets, like machinery, buildings, and computers. For all sorts of businesses, from tech firms and pharma companies to coffee shops and gyms, the ability to deploy assets that one can neither see nor touch is increasingly the main source of long-term success.
But this is not just a familiar story of the so-called new economy. Capitalism without Capital shows that the growing importance of intangible assets has also played a role in some of the big economic changes of the last decade. The rise of intangible investment is, Jonathan Haskel and Stian Westlake argue, an underappreciated cause of phenomena from economic inequality to stagnating productivity.
Haskel and Westlake bring together a decade of research on how to measure intangible investment and its impact on national accounts, showing the amount different countries invest in intangibles, how this has changed over time, and the latest thinking on how to assess this. They explore the unusual economic characteristics of intangible investment, and discuss how these features make an intangible-rich economy fundamentally different from one based on tangibles.
Capitalism without Capital concludes by presenting three possible scenarios for what the future of an intangible world might be like, and by outlining how managers, investors, and policymakers can exploit the characteristics of an intangible age to grow their businesses, portfolios, and economies.

基于个人知识储备，看每章节的conclusion就好…
评分https://www.gatesnotes.com/Books/Capitalism-Without-Capital 太过学术，趣味性没那么强。不过好处就是1、2、3总结的很清楚。没时间的话，看最后一章也差不多了…
评分无形资产投资的特点、经济后果及政策应对。非常深刻的分析，有很多洞见。
评分很规范的学术作品，条理清晰，内容充实。读起来十分舒服，读罢方才深切体会到GDP统计数字的indication的局限且“失真”，而面对无形资产的4s特点所导致其非常dynamic甚至有点玄妙以至于难以检验的现状，让人不禁期待这样的一个测量标准早日出来
评分相信二十年后的人会意识到这本书的价值，因为那时世界经济就是以无形资产为基础的。
