Welcome to the groundbreaking book "The Price of Life" !

Imagine a world where every movement, every breath, every thought not only sustains your life but also powers the entire global economy. In "The Price of Life", we unveil the hidden truth: the energy generated by every cell in your body is the essential engine that transforms inert matter into something alive, functional, and productive.

This book invites you to rethink the global economy through a fresh perspective. Here, we explore how the logic of DNA, the relentless production of cellular energy (ATP), and the autonomous coordination of 37 trillion human cells sustain not only life but also the intricate economic system we live in. How did we get here?

For 96% of human history, small groups lived in balance. Then came the agricultural revolution, sparking a population explosion and creating an economic system that captured humanity in an infinite cycle of production and consumption. This book exposes how this system, based on human energy, has become predatory and unsustainable, diverting us from our fundamental logic.

Why should you read this book?

• Unprecedented revelations: Backed by over 10 years of research, including studies in physics, molecular biology, and econometrics, author João Carlos Orquiza explains how human labor, measured in energy, is the true fuel of the modern economy.

• A call to action: This book is more than an analysis; it is a manifesto. You are invited to reflect, question, and transform your understanding of your role in this system.

• Accessible and transformative: Written for both academics and the general public, the book translates complex concepts into clear and powerful ideas.
