Grand Pursuit: A Story of Economic Genius

Sylvia Nasar, author of a 'A Beautiful Mind'--- the biography of John Nash--- has written a new book titled 'Grand Pursuit: A Story of Economic Genius'. In comparison to 'A Beautiful Mind', the new book

'is thus no longer the story of one man or one set of ideas, but of dozens of men and ideas, and covers not years but centuries, as Nasar tells us how modern economic theory emerged and then evolved, from Adam Smith in the late 18th century to Amartya Sen today' ---[The Globe and Mail].

This should be an interesting read.
