Thomas Sowell has just written his third book in a year, Intellectuals and Society, and America's foremost economist and contemporary philosopher has again given IBD permission to publish excerpts.
The new book is a study of what intellectuals do, why they do it the way they do and — most important —their effects on society.
This seven-part series focuses on the third chapter, "Intellectuals and Economics."
Other chapters in the 398-page volume released last week by Basic Books cover "Intellectuals and Social Visions," "Intellectuals and the Law," "Intellectuals and War" and "Optional Reality in the Media and Academicia," among other topics.http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/SpecialReport.aspx?id=517500
