The making of economic society

While I do believe Mr. Heilbroner pulled a few punches; This book is well worth the time it takes to read it. Only occassionally is the prose is hard to follow. It is worth the effort to re-assemble the few hidden diamonds of understanding. Thought provoking and still relevant in 2011. 90% of it will be relevant 100 yrs from now. Reviews the different kinds of economies and how they developed and how politics is a distinct part of economic society. I liesurly read the 222 pages in 10 days.
