Economists at War: How a Handful of Economists Helped Win and Lose the World Wars

byAllan Bollard

Allan Bollard uses Economists at War to investigate how a Handful of Economists Helped Win and Lose the World Wars through a carefully framed economic analysis. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the wider field of business & economics. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
