Negative Positive
Title: silly and snotty
Review: I was forced to read much of this for an economics class and found it shallow, often infuriatingly so. The author swallows whole the complacent platitudes of modern economics and never, ever seriously examines his assumptions. Perhaps most irritatingly, it sometimes seems as though Buchholz has never read some of these economists first hand; he totally mangles Adam Smith, and presents a distorted view of a man whose thought was much richer than anything here.
Is the review positive or negative?
