Cobb, PA, and 105.7-FM in Scranton, PA. VOLUME V, NUMBER 3 Friday, Dec. 2, 2011, 2-3 PM (CST) Economist and New York Times Columnist Robert H. Frank Author of The Darwin Economy: Liberty, Competition, and the Common Good Robert H. Frank is an economics professor at Cornell's Johnson Graduate School of Management, a regular "Economic View" columnist for The New York Times, and a Distinguished Senior Fellow at Demos. His books, which have been translated into 22 languages, include The Winner-Take-All Society (with Philip Cook), The Economic Naturalist, Luxury Fever, What Price the Moral High Ground?, and Principles of Economics (with Ben Bernanke). Robert Frank's latest book is The Darwin Economy: Liberty, Competition, and the Common Good in which he contends that naturalist Charles Darwin was a greater economist than Adam Smith. According to author Francis Fukuyama, Frank "takes particular aim at the notion that a well-functioning competitive market system will necessarily produce socially optimal results." In The Darwin Economy, Frank argues against Adam Smith's theory of the "invisible hand" which says that competition channels self-interest for the common good. "The uncritical celebration of the invisible hand," writes Frank, "has undermined regulatory efforts to reconcile conflicts between individual and collective interests..., causing considerable harm to all of us."
