"Elementary, elementary economics." Basically this is the story of an economics profesor that goes on vacation and solves a string of murders using the powers of economic analysis. While the authors have a disclaimer that this book is not meant to teach economics, i certainly feel that its a good back up tool, at least. Overall, it was a pretty light hearted funny story, as far as murder stories go. It certainly wasn't bad, it made me chuckle, and i may have even learned a thing or two on the way. This is certainly not the gripping murder mystery of the year, but i don't think its meant to be...it about higher things,economics, and beyond. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieHenry Spearman (3)
Cinnamon Bay Plantation was the ideal Caribbean island getaway--or so it seemed. But for distinguished Harvard economist Henry Spearman it offered diversion of a decidedly different sort and one he'd hardly anticipated: murder. While the island police force is mired in an investigation that leads everywhere and nowhere, the diminutive, balding Spearman, who likes nothing better than to train his curiosity on human behavior, conducts an investigation of his own, one governed by rather different laws--those of economics. Theorizing and hypothesizing, Spearman sets himself on the killer's trail as it twists from the postcard-perfect beaches and manicured lawns of a resort to the bustling old port of Charlotte Amalie to densely forested hiking trails with perilous drops to a barren offshore cay.
