Tom Slee writes about the intersections of technology, politics, and economics. He has a PhD in theoretical chemistry, a long career in the software industry, and his 2006 book "No One Makes You Shop at Wal-Mart" is a left-wing game-theoretical investigation of individual choice and its problems that has been used in university economics, philosophy, and sociology courses.
