«False Dawn: The Delusions of Global Capitalism» is John Gray's economic essay, published by Granta Books in paperback (272 pages, in English).
John Gray argues that the global free market will not create a self-regulating society, but instability and recurrent crises. The essay reviews the history of the free market, from nineteenth-century England to post-Soviet Russia and the Asian crisis, and contends that democracy and the free market are competitors, not allies.
Originally published in 1998; this revised 2002 edition includes a new preface by the author.
For readers interested in economics, political science, and the debate on globalization, with a critical and accessible approach.

Lynn D. Poole was the creator and host of an early U.S. science television program, The Johns Hopkins Science Review (1948–1955), and the author of more than 20 popular science books. In 2002, Patrick Lucanio and Gary Coville wrote that "In retrospect, Lynn Poole created one of those unique series that allowed television to fulfill its idealized mission as both an educational and an entertainment medium." The "pioneering program" made Poole a "surprise star". Marcel LaFollette argues that contemporary science television such as NOVA and the Discovery Channel are derived from the innovations of Poole and others.
