The Undercover Economist
Posted: December 26th, 2020, 9:35 am
My daughter has quite brilliantly taken up a heavy hint that I'd like one of Tim Harford's books for a Christmas present. Better than that, she's bought me three. So that's January sorted, then.
One of the finest and clearest thinkers I've ever seen, and a shining beacon of sanity in these confusing times. The book blurb says they've now sold a million copies of the Undercover Economist, and I'm not surprised. Harford is a weekend regular at the Financial Times, and you'll find him on the BBC news site, and the Times I think.
He has a pretty good blog at https://timharford.com/. Try this one for size, on error detection: https://timharford.com/2020/12/working- ... t-to-show/ . Fine stuff.
