Trade Review
“No one has taught me more surprising truths about the world we live in than Steven Landsburg, if only because he asks surprising questions. Can You Outsmart an Economist? will delight and inform anyone who enjoys rigorous thinking and the unexpected conclusions it delivers.” —Jamie Whyte, author of Crimes Against Logic "From zero knowledge proofs to prisoner's dilemmas, from call options to comparative advantage, from price theory to game theory, this ingenious gallop through the mind of Steven Landsburg enables you to think like an economist without incurring a Keynesian headache or a huge student loan. You may even end up 'smarter than Google.' But you will not readily put down this exhilarating adventure in ideas." —George Gilder, author of Knowledge and Power and Life After Google "Steven E. Landsburg's Can You Outsmart an Economist? is entertaining as well as edifying. Read it, expand your mind, and have fun!” —N. Gregory Mankiw, Robert M. Beren Professor of Economics at Harvard University and author of Principles of Economics —
