The Invisible Heart: An Economic Romance by Russell Roberts: I’ve said before that the highest praise I can give any book is that it made me think. This is one such book. It is ostensibly the story of a romance that blossoms between two high school teachers, but really it’s one big lesson in economics. Sure, some of the conversations feel a bit forced in order to get the point across, but even so I found myself unable to put it down. It challenged my beliefs and made me ruminate on issues I’d never considered. I can’t say I agree with all of the points made by the characters – on either side of the argument – but it definitely brought up some sticklers that will leave me pondering for quite some time.
