The Death of Economics by Paul Ormerod

This text questions the abilities of the economists who influence political decisions on the economy. Ormerod aims to show that traditional economists view the world in a way which ensures they will never be able to understand it. He suggests that economies are not precise, controllable machines, but dynamic organisms, that we need to find a new way of looking at if we are to operate them successfully.
