The Economics Anti-textbook
Mainstream textbooks present economics as an objective science free from value judgements; that settles disputes by testing hypotheses; that applies a pre-determined body of principles; and contains policy prescriptions supported by a consensus of professional opinion. It challenges the mainstream textbooks' assumptions, arguments, models and evidence. The Economics Anti-Textbook argues that this is a myth - one which is not only dangerously misleading but also bland and boring.
Drawing on the work of leading economists, the It puts the controversy and excitement back into economics to reveal a fascinating and a vibrant field of study - one which is more an 'art of persuasion' than it is a science.The Economics Anti-Textbook's chapters parallel the major topics in the typical text, beginning with a boiled-down account of them before presenting an analysis and critique.
