Reviews

"This book fills an important gap, offering an exciting look into the heterogeneity required to understand real-world economics."
Arjen van Witteloostuijn, Dean of the School of Business and Economics at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

"To tackle the systemic challenges that the world faces today, we need economists with an open-mindset and a diverse toolkit to help guide us. This book provides the building blocks for educating these crucial experts."
Jan Peter Balkenende, former prime minister of the Netherlands

“A tremendous resource for both teachers and students of economics.”
Prof. Wendy Carlin (UCL), director of the CORE Economics Education Project

“Based on a thorough analysis, the authors argue for a radical rethink of how economics is taught. Whether you agree or disagree with some of the specific suggestions, this book is definitely worth reading.”
Claudio Borio, Head of Monetary and Economic Department at the BIS

"This book is a tour de force. The mastery of the subject that the authors and their team display is astonishing. It was a source of inspiration for the development of the new program at the Vrije Universiteit of Amsterdam."
Prof. Arjo Klamer (EUR & VU)
