Best Wishes

by digby

I just heard that Robert Frank, economist and great friend of Hullabaloo, had a heart attack recently. Apparently, he’s doing very well, back at home etc., so that’s good news.

If you would care to make him happy in his recuperation (good for healing), I would urge you to consider buying one of his books, particularly “The Economic Naturalist: In Search of Explanations for Everyday Enigmas” a fun little book that answers many questions about how and why people make the decisions they do. It’s a great way for those of us who are not economists to think about economics in our everyday lives.

Frank appeared on the FDL Book Salon a few months back and we had a very lively discussion of his book Falling Behind: How Rising Inequality Harms the Middle Class — a book for our times if there ever was one.

Get well soon!
