Description:
Recommended by Eric Maskin, Adams University Professor and Professor of Economics and Mathematics; recipient of the 2007 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics
One book that Maskin ranks as his favorite of all time is “The Origin of Species” by Charles Darwin. When the book came out in 1859, it made quite the splash. It revolutionized scientific study, caused an explosion of controversy, and fundamentally transformed the way we understand the world. It is a bedrock of scientific literature.
“A beautifully written and fascinating book — and a wonderful illustration of how to do science,” Maskin said.
