Reviews for The Mystery of the Invisible Hand: A Henry Spearman Mystery
The twists and turns of the plat make for great fun as well as for an enjoyable way to learn economics... The Mystery of the Invisible Hand reveals clearly that, while economics can only sometimes help to piece together clues to an unsolved murder, it is utterly indispensable for making sense of the world.
