Through the teachings of Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, and more, renowned economist Todd Buchholz shows how these age-old ideas still apply to our modern world. In this revised edition, Buchholz offers an insightful and informed perspective on key economic issues that remain extraordinarily relevant in 2021: global warming, the refugee crisis, growth and conflict in Russia and China, solar power and alternative agriculture, tariffs, free trade, and so much more. New Ideas from Dead Economists is a fascinating guide to understanding both the evolution of economic theory and our complex contemporary economy.
