Recensione

"The Consequences of Economic Rhetoric is an important volume, marking the true beginning of what may well become a new conversation in economics. It is a valuable start but only a start; future conferences and future volumes will ultimately be required to tell the story of this conversation." D. Wade Hands, Journal of Economic Literature

Descrizione del libro

The field of economics proves to be a matter of metaphor and storytelling - its mathematics is metaphoric and its policy-making is narrative. Economists have begun to realize this and to rethink how they speak.
