520			_aA collection of the writings of Deirdre McCloskey on economic history and the rhetoric of economics. The book reflects McCloskey's evolution over time: from economist to critic; positivist to postmodernist; conventional economist to feminist economist; and man to woman. McClosky argues that economics has become ahistorical and narrowly scientific; a harmful development for a moral science. The book shows the critic's attempts to repair the dysfunctional relationship between economics and the humanities.
