Adam Smith Goes to Moscow is a captivating dialogue between the head of a hypothetical, formerly socialist East European country and a fervently market-minded American adviser.

Recensioner i media

"This is a gem of a book... the complex issues of the economic transformation to the market in Eastern Europe are ingeniously explored... The flow of the dialogue is concise, fast, and intellectually robust... a brilliant and fascinating read."--Times Higher Education Supplement "... offers a lively and thoughtful reconsideration of the Big Bang approach to economic repair... provides an imaginatively conceived introduction to the critical intellectual debates around how to fix the Russian economy."--Toronto Globe and Mail "It is refreshing to read a piece of scholarship based on such careful research on both sides of a vital issue... This is important scholarship only thinly disguised as fiction. It deserves a wide audience."--William S. Brown, Journal of Economic Issues
