The Literate Economist illustrates how the ideas of the great economists not only influenced societies but were themselves shaped by their cultural milieu. Understanding the economists' visions lucidly and vividly unveiled by Canterbery allows readers to place economics within a broader community of ideas. Magically, the author links Adam Smith to Isaac Newton's idea of an orderly universe. F Soon Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby to Thorstein Veblen, John Steinbeck's Graces of Wrath to the Great Depression, and Tom Wolfe's The Bonfire of the Vanities to Reaganomics.
