The Big Three in Economics: Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and John Maynard Keynes(Only Audio)
The Big Three in Economics reveals the battle of ideas among the three most influential economists in world history: Adam Smith, representing laissez faire; Karl Marx, reflecting the radical socialist model; and John Maynard Keynes, symbolizing big government and the welfare state. History comes alive in this fascinating story of opposing views that continue to play a fundamental role in today's politics and economics. In the twenty-first century, Adam Smith's 'invisible hand' model has gained the upper hand, and capitalism has ultimately won the ideological battle over socialism and interventionism.
Narrated by the author! “Once upon a time, a long, long, time ago...” So begins the story of... Rapunzel?... and The Seven, or Eight, or NINE dwarfs?!? Hey, what’s going on here??? Welcome to the slightly off-track world of Maynard Moose and the ancient Mother Moose tales. Willy Claflin channels and translates these tales for our entertainment and enlightenment—or maybe just to confuse us. Rapunzel and the Seven Dwarfs exemplifies the lesson in many of these stories “...That there ain’t no moral to some stories at all.” Maynard Moose's fractured English is translated in small pop-ups throughout the TumbleBook's text.
