de Veblen Thorstein ...

Its true to say that Veblens book is one of the great classics of economic theory; however, such a description suggests (at least to non-economists like myself) that the book will be either dull or remorselessly technical. On the contrary, The Theory of the Leisure Class is stylishly written, endlessly startling (for example, Veblen analyses religion as an outgrowth of the gambling instinct), and ... Leer más
