For those for whom economics is not a strong suit: the history of economics is a good starting place

5 stars

Excellent book. Quinn Slobodian is obviously a talented and thorough historian. Although his sympathies do not lie with his subjects, he always gives them and their philosophies a fair hearing. I found the discussion of the birth of the WTO (World Trade Organization) to be interesting but lacking. Chalk this up to that story being somewhat outside of the book's remit, which is to discuss the birth of neoliberalism, rather than its flowering.
