Author: Robert L. Heilbroner

Selection Statement:

This book was given to me by my undergraduate adviser in my first economics course. At that time I didn’t know what I wanted to major in or exactly what I wanted to do once I graduated. This book really helped shape that decision as it helped me decide on economics as a major and pushed me to think deeply about economics and choose to do graduate work in economics.
