What's the Use of Economics?: Teaching the Dismal Science After the Crisis
Diane Coyle
The gap between important real-word problems and the workhorse mathematical model-based economics being taught to students has become a chasm. This book examines what economists need to bring to their jobs, and the way in which economics education in universities could be improved to fit them better for the real world.
