The Rhetoric of Economics
Deirdre N. McCloskey
A classic in its field, this pathbreaking book humanized the scientific rhetoric of economics to reveal its literary soul. "McCloskey's target is the pretentious scientism in which economists couch their mutual persuasions--a scientism that lingers on as the near-official language of economics discourse long after its inadequacies have been recognized by philosophers and scientists".--NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS.
