Mariana Mazzucato argues we need to think bigger and mobilize our resources in a way that is as bold as inspirational as the moon landing-this time to the most ‘wicked’ social problems of our time. Global warming, pollution, dementia, obesity, gun violence, mobility-these environmental, health, and social dilemmas are huge, complex, and have no simple solutions.
