The Chemistry of Economic Growth: Collision Theory in Practice explores the transformative power of connection, energy, and alignment in driving economic development. Drawing on principles of collision theory and the lessons of a chemist’s lab, this book offers a fresh perspective on how communities unlock their potential for sustainable growth.

By blending storytelling, practical frameworks, and actionable strategies, Crowder demonstrates how communities can overcome barriers, ignite momentum, and create lasting progress.
