Last week the new Zed Books catalogue dropped through the letter box. Among
its delights was a forthcoming volume authored by Steve Keen, University of
Western Sydney, entitled "Debunking Economics: The Naked Emperor of the
Social Sciences." The blurb explains that the book
"explains why economists think the way they do, and points out the flaws in
their thinking which they don't realise, don't appreciate, or just plain
ignore. Most of these flaws were established by dissident academic
economists decades ago, yet modern economics pretends that it can continue
with 'business as usual'."
Among those praising the book are erstwhile Penner Henry Liu, URPE stalwart
Don Goldstein and Hugh Stretton. Anybody know anything about this? Rob?
