There's a lot to like here, and the book doesn't overstay its welcome. If you aren't familiar with the concepts in it I'd recommend it - it doesn't come across too strong, it's well written, and the ideas are important.I read [b:Good Economics for Hard Times 51014619 Good Economics for Hard Times Better Answers to Our Biggest Problems Abhijit V. Banerjee https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1562348201l/51014619.SX50_SY75.jpg 71791715] recently, and it's good that Bregman cites Esther Duflo because he's clearly inspired by a lot of her work. I found it maybe cheapened the experience of this book, and is definitely worth the follow-up if you liked Utopia for Realists and want more depth!
