    Desai’s analysis is sharp and insightful, but the book could benefit from more real-world examples. Overall, a good contribution.

  3. Amay Lahoti –

    A valuable critique of mainstream economics. However, the author’s own biases are sometimes too apparent. It still has some strong content.

    A solid critique, though it sometimes gets bogged down in details. The big picture is important, and Desai doesn’t always keep that in focus.

    I appreciated Desai’s critical lens, but at times it felt overly negative. A balanced approach would have been better. Still, it is informative

    Desai offers a compelling argument for rethinking our approach to economics. Some concepts were a bit abstract, but the overall message is clear.
