Robert Frank’s book “The Economic Naturalist” is published in paperback in the UK this month and is available for £4.79 from Amazon. Full of really interesting economic enigmas, I have used it on several occasions with my students and the feedback has been superb. He was featured in the Independent on Friday - here is the link to the article.

Robert H Frank, an Ivy League professor who brought the study of cost-benefit solutions to America’s masses, explains how cold, hard cash really does make our world go round.
