Became clear early on that this was written by an incredibly conservative economist who thought the discipline was fine but that economists could use a bit of training on rhetoric. Disappointing. When she lauded Gary Becker for his discussion of "criminals" as "small business owners," it was obvious that none of this would actually fundamentally criticize economics for its use of mathematical jargon to construct a conservative worldview, which is at the top of the list of necessities when considering a critique of economic rhetoric.

As someone interested in economics and science, this book really flipped my perspective. Most of this is a critique of the field of economics, and a well-needed one I think. To sum up, economists and any scientist should be cognizant of their rhetoric and modernism is old. It is fairly dense and took me a while longer than I expected to finish, but was well worth it.
