  • Worldly Philosopher: The Odyssey of Albert O. Hirschman

    "Having found my own unifying way of looking at issues as diverse as competition and the two-party system, divorce and the American character, black power and the failure of “unhappy” top officials to resign over Vietnam, I decided to let myself go a little."

    Wow! A stunning biography. I hadn't heard of Hirshman before. It's expanded my "to read" list by a few entries as well. Thanks for sharing!

      Never heard of him either. Thanks, Thailand.

      I'm going to find some of his work and read it this summer - if my wife runs out of yard work for me!
