Grand Pursuit by Sylvia Nasar

Sylvia Nasar, the author of the phenomenal bestseller A Beautiful Mind takes us on a journey through the epic story of the making of modern economics, and how it rescued mankind from squalor and deprivation by placing its material fate in its own hands, rather than in Fate.

Praise for ‘A Beautiful Mind’
‘Tells a moving story and offers a remarkable look into the arcane world of mathematics and the tragedy of madness’
The New York Times Book Review

‘Might be compared to a Rembrandt portrait, filled with somber shadows and radiant light effects…superbly written and eminently fascinating…simply a beautiful book.’ The Boston Globe

Sylvia Nasar is the author of the bestselling A Beautiful Mind. She is the John S. and James L. Knight Professor at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism.
