We Should Be So Lucky

Why the Australian Way Works

About this book

Australians are wealthier, live longer and enjoy better healthcare than almost anyone else in the world. But is it just luck?

We Should Be So Lucky, the first book to be released under the Prospect Editions imprint, delves into the secrets behind Australia's remarkable success and why its relative prosperity and good living is not just luck.

Australia is often referred to as the 'Lucky Country' where good fortune has delivered people greater wealth, longer lives and better healthcare. But as Andrew argues, the country's relative prosperity and longevity is not just luck – it stems from a unique blend of political, social and economic institutions and values.

Drawing on his vast experience in global business and finance and his deep connection to Australia, Andrew offers a compelling analysis of how the Australian Way works and why it matters. The book is both a celebration of what Australia has achieved and a guide for other democracies seeking solutions to their own challenges.
