In the original, the book is titled even more intriguingly — «What’s in the Economists’ Mind.» Naturally, they think about the economy, the whole question is how and what they think. Unlike many other scientists, economists are at the crossroads of political ambition, social trends, climate change, and moral issues. Winning a scientific argument can influence government decisions, and a careless forecast can raise or crash the stock market. The collection of conversations with Nobel laureates, published in the Moscow School of Management Skolkovo series, provides a unique opportunity to understand the scale of the problems that economics as a science solves, and to see the bright personalities of outstanding economists behind global trends and major discoveries. People who understand what’s going on and influence the mindset of decision makers.
