Reviews

This is a superb interdisciplinary book. It contributes original insights into 'economics' drawn from the author's studies of film and critiques of mainstream economic theory. It exposes the ideologically loaded abstractions central to mainstream economics. And it also shows us how films both reflect and shape mainstream economics and its critiques. Brilliant, exceptional work. -Richard Wolff, Professor at the New School for Social Research and Emeritus Professor at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA. Founder of Democracy at Work
