Economics needs to admit that it, like other sciences, works with metaphors and stories. Its most mathematical and statistical moments are properly dominated by comparison and narration, that is to say, human persuasion. The book was McCloskey's opening move in the development of a "humanomics, " and unification of the sciences and the humanities on the field of ordinary business life. 606 $aEconomía$2CSICAU 606 $aEconomía$2CSICAU 615 7$aEconomía. 615 7$aEconomía. 676 $a330 700 $aMcCloskey$b Deirdre N.$0147294 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bUMA.CEE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968077503321 996 $aRhetoric of Economics$9578398 997 $aUNINA
