Product description

This book discusses vital issues such as justice, tolerance, and fairness, which are very important and dangerous issues whether addressed in stadiums or in the world of commerce. And Landsberg succeeded, with the help of his daughter Kylie, in making a comparison between the wisdom of the father and the wisdom of the economist, even if the comparison was not always in favor of the latter. Through the pages of the book and thanks to Landsberg's sharp intelligence and his astonishing ability to challenge everything logical, he addressed a range of issues that varied surprisingly, ranging from economic theory, and the philosophy of fatherhood, to the truth of family values and their nature, and to the core of our lives themselves and how we can drink from its cup to drunkenness. Landsberg used the interactions within the family circle between parents and children to interpret economic theories related to free trade, migration, progressive taxes, minimum wage, racial discrimination, and the role of money in all of that. He succeeded in presenting the best of philosophical issues supporting or opposing the idea of progressive taxes, and then balanced them with the wisdom he derived from the stadiums.
