Trade Review
"Financial Times Best Economics Book of the Year 2021"
"A CapX Book of the Year"
"Winner of the Gold Medal in Business Commentary, Axiom Business Book Awards"
"Eloquent. . . . Thought-provoking."---Felix Martin, Financial Times ​​​​​​​
"

Coyle’s contribution is valuable. The book reads like a timely intervention delivered by a perceptive friend, in the kindest tone they can muster. Economists would do well to listen.

"---James Plunkett, Prospect
"[Coyle] is extremely wise, and the best friend economics could have—one willing to offer some serious tough love."---Tim Harford, timharford.com
"Full of illuminating anecdotes about the gap between theory and practice."---Simon Torracinta, Boston Review
"

An inspiring read for those developing, using or seeking to understand economics in a rapidly changing world.
