For people seriously interested in this subject, Steve Keen has done a lot of work on dynamic nonlinear economics. 

Steve Keen is an embarrassment.  He is a joke.  He wants the government to give a debt jubilee to deadbeats in debt.

While you can disagree with his proposed solutions for the debt-crisis, that does not take away his awesome work in explaining the current system of 'lending before reserves' and similar topics. I can be thousands of persons, combined in one single physical body. Let's approach Keen's work the same way - on its merits.

I'm not a big fan of Steve's political views either, but his dynamic approach to economics is fucking fantastic.
