Description

In the modern world, economics has acquired an almost religious aura with its specific dogmas and zealous acolytes. Malko’s book demystifies economic ideas by showing how they were born and how they have developed through the ages. Covering more than two thousand years of history, it untangles the links between economics and areas as diverse as theology, physics, the theater, and war. It describes the dangers of economic fundamentalism and offers a fresh perspective on modern debates on politics and economy.
