About the Book: An Economists Miscellany : From the Groves of Academe to the
Slopes of Raisina Hill
'Philosophy has to be deductive, poetry romantic, plays and fiction humorous,

All these interests are on display in An Economists Miscellany, which brings
together an eclectic collection of writings on the world of academe, politics,
policy, travel, and more. This book offers unique glimpses of the authors

issues; his exploration of different parts of the world; and his reflections on
people, ideas, and books that
