Economics needs to admit that it, like other sciences, works with metaphors and stories. Its most mathematical and statistical moments are properly dominated by comparison and narration, that is to say, human persuasion. The book was McCloskey's opening move in the development of a humanomics and unification of the sciences and the humanities on the field of ordinary business life.  aEconomics;  c4989d4989  00104070aU002bU002cSustainable Developmentd2025-01-17l0o330McCpUR005052r2025-01-31 00:00:00w2025-01-17yBK
