SynopsisEconomics: Marxian versus Neoclassical is an economics text with a difference--a concise, systematic comparison of the two major contending economic theories in the world today.
A great learning experience for the intellectually curious
Professor Richard Wolff is unique in his ability to explain in terms non-economists can absorb the basis for competing theories of how economies (and societies) are organized and perform. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to gain a solid perspective on how the schools of economic theory look at our world and their support for greater or lesser involvement by government.
