The Worldly Philosophers elucidates historically popular economic theories. The author's ability to do so with ease and effectiveness is a mark of its appreciation, and it remains an indispensable text for students of economics today. John Kenneth Galbraith stated "[i]f ever a book answered a crying need, this one does. Here is all the economic lore most general readers conceivably could want to know, served up with a flourish by a man who writes with immense vigor and skill, who has a rare gift for simplifying complexities." Galbraith's approval is all the more relevant considering that this copy was inscribed to him.
