E.F. Schumacher: His Life and Thought by: Barbara Wood

E.F. Schumacher: His Life and Thought
by: Barbara Wood

Hardcover. NY, Harper & Row, 1st, 1984, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, price-clipped dust jacket, 394 pages. Gives insight into the evolution of Schumacher's philosophy and character while providing the necessary historical details and context. The author is his daughter and while Ms.Wood's love for her Dad is evident throughout, she does not appear to treat him with kid gloves. Her report of Fritz's struggles to understand his family's tacit support for Hitler and the Nazi's was an interesting revelation. According to Ms. Wood, Fritz progressed from atheism early on to membership in the Roman Catholic Church toward the end of his life. Small sticker on dj spine otherwise clean and tight.

John Kenneth Galbraith His Life His Politics His Economics (SIGNED COPY)by: Parker Richard

John Kenneth Galbraith His Life His Politics His Economics (SIGNED COPY)
by: Parker Richard

Hardcover. NY, Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1st, 2005, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR on front fly leaf. Born and raised on a small Canadian farm, Galbraith began teaching at Harvard during the Depression. He was FDR's "price czar" during the war and then a senior editor of Fortune before returning to Harvard and to fame as a bestselling writer. Parker shows how, from his early championing of Keynes to his acerbic analysis of America's "private wealth and public squalor," Galbraith regularly challenged prevailing theories and policies. And his account of Galbraith's remarkable friendship with John F. Kennedy, whom he served as a close advisor while ambassador to India, is especially relevant for its analysis of the intense, dynamic debates that economists and politicians can have over how America should manage its wealth and power. This masterful chronicle gives color, depth, and meaning to the record of an extraordinary life. Clean copy.
