4.0 out of 5 stars
A nice introduction; could have been juicier,

This review is from: Free Lunch: Easily Digestible Economics (Paperback)
I read this book almost simultaneously with my reading of "Hidden Order" and "Undercover Economist". I'll state my opinion on this book briefly:
1. This book tells you about the lives of Economists whose theories it talks about. This is good - since you learn much more than just the theories; you get to know much more about the Economists than just the theories they postulated. 2. The chapters progress from simple logic to not-so-simple theories. David Smith has written the text beautifully - it's nice to read and 'digest' this lunch. 3. One negative point - sometimes the storyline moves very slowly. There were many instances where I grew impatient with the reading and flipped pages to see where it all was leading to. The style could have been more concise. Overall, I would rate this book a 4 out of 5. It's written in a lucid style, but probably won't appeal to everyone - particularly not to those who prefer fast readups. |
