Description
An essential read if you want to know how economics has erred - and how it can do better.—Gabriel Zucman, author of 'The Hidden Wealth of Nations'
I couldn't put it down. A thorough and nuanced examination of the evolution of supply side economics and the debates we had around how to put the theory into practice. I loved it.—Arthur Laffer, creator of the Laffer Curve
A brilliant tour de force exposing the limitations of economic theories. Bergin punctures many accepted myths and - with care and rigour - demonstrates how much accepted economic orthodoxy is based on ideology and not reality. A very readable and well-researched book that we all should read.—Margaret Hodge, former chair of the UK parliament’s Public Accounts Committee
An entertaining and thought-provoking exploration of economic theories that have been both widely accepted and largely wrong . . . I devoured it in a couple of sittings.—Reuters Breakingviews
Fantastically provocative book . . . a really great read.—David McWilliams, economist and author
