Dear John,

A new essay released today examines the key insights of Deirdre McCloskey, whose humanistic view of economics has fundamentally changed the way economists approach their profession.

McCloskey earned her PhD in economics at Harvard University before accepting a teaching position at the University of Chicago where she made significant contributions to the use of quantitative methods in economic history.

Her Bourgeois trilogy explains the emergence of bourgeois civilization, the technological and commercial innovations it inspired, and how these innovations helped produce what she calls the “Great Enrichment” — the 3,000% increase in living standards over the past 300 years!

This essay is part of a new book that examines the lives and ideas of women who helped shape the free and prosperous societies we enjoy today.

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
