Tim Harford at the Keynes Society

We are delighted to have the Undercover Economist Tim Harford returning to the Keynes Society on Thursday 19th November at 8-45pm in Upper School. Hot on the heels of his hugely successful books The Undercover Economist and The Logic of Life, Tim has made a timely and swift return to the top of the book charts with Dear Undercover Economist: The Very Best Letters from the “Dear Economist” Column: The Undercover Economist Solves Life’s Everyday Mysteries and Problems. Tim’s ability to connect with his audience and make Economics appealing, relevant and thought provoking is well established - it should be another super evening. A warm welcome is extended to teaching colleagues. We are likely to be pretty full for this meeting so .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) if you are coming and plan to bring some students.
