Product description
Review
"An interesting and highly pertinent book." --Noam Chomsky "It is a damning indictment for the economics profession that it has taken young people barely out of university to provide this analysis. Utterly compelling and sobering." --Ha-Joon Chang, author, Economics: The User's Guide "A rousing wake-up call to the economics profession. . . . Technically assured, well-argued, and informative." --Robert Skidelsky, author, How Much Is Enough?

How are ratings calculated?
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we do not use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.
