5.0 out of 5 stars Unlike every other economic book you've ever read Oct 10 2011
By Robert Kirk - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a strange book.. A book about the business of economics. It is not a book explaining what economics is about rather it explains the schools of economic thought, the reason why economists write papers and overall industry of economics. He explains that in order for economics to be more highly respected, it must get better at the basics (including the quality of the writing). In summary, if you really love economics and want to look at it from a much different angle, this book is a joy.
