Hardcover, xlvi + 396 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Minor handling wear. Bright untorn dust jacket. -- This work seeks to revive and re-examine the neglected economic theories of Nobel laureate Maurice Allais, arguing they provide a powerful explanation for financial instability.
