Gale L. Pooley Biography

Gale L. Pooley, PhD, is an economist and professor who has helped thousands of investors, business leaders, and students understand the innovation process. He is co-author of the award-winning book, "Superabundance: A Story of Population Growth, Innovation, and Human Flourishing on an Infinitely Bountiful Planet," which received the Julian L. Simon Memorial Award from the Competitive Enterprise Institute in 2023, the Leonard E. Read Book Award from Freedom Fest in 2024, and was a two-time finalist for the F. A. Hayek Award from the Manhattan Institute. The book has been translated into Spanish and Polish.

Dr. Pooley has taught at six universities, including Utah Tech University, Brigham Young University-Hawaii, Alfaisal University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Brigham Young University-Idaho, Boise State University, and the College of Idaho. He teaches The Economics of Human Flourishing course at the Peterson Academy with Dr. Marian Tupy. Dr. Pooley has been interviewed on Jordan Peterson, C-SPAN, "American Thought Leaders," and The Bitcoin Standard, and frequently shares insights on his Substack, "GaleWinds – the antidote to irrational pessimism."

He earned his BBA in Economics from Boise State University, completed graduate work at Montana State University, and obtained his doctorate from the University of Idaho. Dr. Pooley owned a private consulting firm for 30 years, traveled to 35 countries, and earned the MAI, SRA, FRICS, and CCIM professional designations. His articles have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, National Review, Forbes, Human Progress, The Daily Economy, The American Spectator, FEE, the Utah Bar Journal, the Appraisal Journal, Quillette, and RealClearMarkets.

Dr. Pooley is a Senior Fellow with the Discovery Institute, an Adjunct Scholar at the Cato Institute, a board member of HumanProgress.org, and a scholar at the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii. He is the co-author with Dr. Tupy of the Simon Abundance Index, which uses the “time prices” of 50 basic commodities to estimate the relationship between global population growth and resource abundance. Together, they developed the Pooley-Tupy theorem, quantifying the growth in knowledge resources over time at individual and population levels.

Gale L. Pooley Speaking Topics

The New Economics of Human Flourishing

Economics has long been plagued by three Original Sins: the belief that only physical matter constitutes resources, that scarcity defines our world, and that money is an accurate measure of our standard of living.

In contrast, the new economics of human flourishing asserts that true wealth lies in knowledge, that human beings with the freedom to innovate transform scarcities into abundances, and that time—not money—is the most meaningful measure of prosperity.

This presentation is based on the award-winning book, "Superabundance: The Story of Population Growth, Innovation, and Human Flourishing on an Infinitely Bountiful Planet."

Through clear, quantifiable insights, the presentation makes complex economic concepts engaging, accessible, and memorable. It blends evidence-based optimism, a lucid exposition of ideas like time prices, and a passionate defense of human potential. By shifting perspectives from scarcity to abundance, the presentation uses historical data and forward-looking insights to inspire confidence in humanity’s ability to thrive.

The New Economics of Human Flourishing is the antidote to irrational pessimism.
