Subject: [SHOE] Query on popular HET books

Dear all,

A friend of mine, an economist, has been asking for highly readable books on the history of economic thought and I've failed time and again with my suggestions. He's not looking into any particular topic, but appreciates mostly the quality and interest of the narrative. If you want to help me with any suggestions, reply off-list, please.

Thanks in advance
David
