Pressezitat
'Otteson, a philosopher, has written for non-economists the best short introduction to economics, and to a wider political economy. It is lucid, generous, open-handed yet thorough, and solidly based scientifically. Come to think of it, most economists should read it, too. They might stop using 'philosophical' as a term of contempt, and get back to an Adam-Smithian depth of understanding.' Deirdre McCloskey, University of Illinois, Chicago
