50 Economics Classics: Your shortcut to the most important ideas on capitalism, finance, and the global economy

Butler-Bowdon has made a name for himself …the breadth of thought is far-reaching and inspiring―The Sunday Mail, Australia

The synopses in this book are fair, balanced, and about as good an introduction to the broad range of modern economic writing, along with a few classics, as one is likely to find.―Professor James K Galbraith, author of Inequality: What Everyone Needs to Know

This is not just a book for people who want to save time by reading one book instead of 50. [It] looks into some huge pieces of economic thought which even many important economists have browsed too swiftly. If you are not an economist, this book will teach you a lot. And if you are an economist, it will also teach you a lot.―Hernan Blejer, economic journalist, analyst for Euromonitor, lecturer University of Buenos Aires, London School of Economics

PRAISE FOR THE 50 CLASSICS SERIES:

Remarkable. Complex views on a whole range of important and enduring issues are made accessible to the general reader. Both enjoyable and instructive.―C.L. Ten, Professor of Philosophy, National University of Singapore on ’50 Philosophy Classics’
