| Summary: | This book is based on an in-depth conversation with Brian Epstein, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Tufts University. Brian Epstein's career as a management consultant piqued his interest and his later research into the reasons why our current models of economics, politics and other areas of social science so often go terribly wrong. This conversation explores how we can dramatically improve our current economic and political models by reexamining our assumptions about the nature of the social world. This carefully-edited book includes a detailed introduction, questions for discussion at the end of each chapter and connections with other books in the Ideas Roadshow Conversations series |
