First Paragraph

The history of modern economics is a cunning plot that can match the best of historical novels. The running story line is man's search for wealth and prosperity and the economic model that best serves the needs of the common man.

- From
The Making of Modern Economics: The Lives and Ideas of the Great Thinkers by Mark Skousen
