Here is a bold, updated history of economics, the dramatic story of how the great economic thinkers built today’s rigorous social science. Noted financial writer and economist Mark Skousen has revised this popular work to provide more on Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and Joseph Stiglitz and on “imperfect” markets and behavioral economics.

This comprehensive, yet accessible introduction to the major economic philosophers of the past 225 years begins with Adam Smith and continues to the present day, examining the contributions made by each individual to our understanding of the role of the economist, the science of economics, and economic theory. Included are highlights of little known facts about the economists' personal lives that affected their work.

Kirja antaa hyvän ja kattavan peruskuvan taloustieteen historiasta sekä sen keskeisistä koulukunnista ja sopii vähemmänkin aiheeseen perehtyneelle. On pakko kuitenkin huomauttaa, että kirjassa on aika vahva oikealle kallistuva arvolataus ja näkökulma on hyvin amerikkalainen. Suomalaiseen hyvinvointivaltioon uskovalle kirjailija painottaa aika paljon näkemyksiä, jotka vaativat hieman pureskelua ennen nielemistä. Mainittakoon vielä, että allekirjoittanut identifioi itsensä enemmän oikealle kuin vasemmalle ja silti kirjailijan tapa antaa enemmän painoa ja tukea täysin vapaalle markkinataloudelle kummastutti paikoin. Muutoin kyllä suositeltava teos!
