Sobre IBD

Blending past and present, this brief history of economics is the perfect book for introducing students to the field.A Brief History of Economics illustrates how the ideas of the great economists not only influenced societies but were themselves shaped by their cultural milieu. Understanding the economists’ visions - lucidly and vividly unveiled by Canterbery - allows readers to place economics within a broader community of ideas. Magically, the author links Adam Smith to Isaac Newton’s idea of an orderly universe, F Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby to Thorstein Veblen, John Steinbeck’s Grapes of Wrath to the Great Depression, and Tom Wolfe’s The Bonfire of the Vanities to Reaganomics.Often humorous, Canterbery’s easy style will make the student’s first foray into economics lively and relevant. Readers will dismiss 'dismal' from the science.
