Profiles in Economics series.
This series explores the lives and work of four philosophers and economists. The books show shared--and divergent--ideas the men gained from classical sources and from each other. Though the texts tend to focus on minutiae ("Cheese and fruit, especially strawberries, were favorites of Adam"), they do present well-rounded portraits of their subjects. Many archival paintings and photographs accompany the texts. Timeline, websites. Bib., ind. Review covers these Profiles in Economics titles: Adam Smith, John Maynard Keynes, Milton Friedman, and Karl Marx.
