"This book examines the use of rhetoric in economics, focusing on the work of Deirdre McCloskey as well as other major economic philosophers. Benjamin Balak utilizes the views of Derrida and Foucault amongst others to analyze McCloskey's major texts and critically evaluates the linguistic, literary, and philosophical approaches they introduce."--BOOK JACKET.
