Curious about the theoretical insights of history's great economic minds? How about their financial troubles, sexual orientations, and eccentric views regarding extraterrestrial life? Perhaps one of the most engagingly written works of academic non-fiction, this highly readable classic covers the economic theories of Adam Smith, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, Joseph Schumpeter, and others -- without skimping on the quirky biographical details and larger historical context. No stock tips, though, I'm afraid.
