Abstract
From almost its beginnings economics has been shadowed by a kind of negative doppelgänger, which has mocked, denigrated and wished ill on its positive counterpart. This clamorously hostile figure we will call ‘anti-economics’. This book tells the story of anti-economics, and seeks to take its measure.
