Alexander Field, Michel and Mary Orradre Professor of Economics, was recently featured in Tyler Cowen’s blog Marginal Revolution, one of the most widely- read blogs in Economics. Cowen’s post reviews Professor Field’s book “A Great Leap Forward: 1930s Depression and U.S. Economic Growth,” and calls the book “a masterpiece,” “one of the best economics books of the last ten years,” and “the only economic interpretation of WWII [that] makes sense and is supported by the numbers.”
