Title: DISAPPOINTED
Review: Inaccurate historical claims + bad political economy + author way out of his league (is he a mutual fund guy?)I have never read William Bernstein before and thought he was Peter Bernstein from the publicity. My bad. Peter Bernstein's Capital Ideas + Against The Gods covers all the themes. There is much ado about nothing here.Book is pedestrian and populist. Not enough to compensate for kitschy content. Skip this one and try WW Rostow's World Economy for serious history, or Kindleberger's History of Western Europe for accuracy or Michel Beaud's Capitalism for reasons why the West advanced. Ludwig Von Mises Theory And History: An Interpretation Of Social And Economic Evolution rocks.
