How Economists Model the World into Numbers cover

Economics is dominated by model building, therefore a comprehension of how such models work is vital to understanding the discipline. This book provides a critical analysis of the economist's favourite tool, and as such will be an enlightening read for some, and an intriguing one for others.

'Boumans has written a rich, deeply informed and insightful book'.
