"Riveting. This is an outstanding book. "The Hesitant Hand" is interesting, scholarly, balanced, and very well-written. I learned a great deal."--Denis O'Brien, professor emeritus, Durham University
"This is a wonderfully clear book that will attract a lot of readers, especially among economists who do not normally consider history relevant to their concerns. Medema tells the story of how our understanding of government and the market has been changed as economists have relentlessly applied the self-interest model."--Roger E. Backhouse, University of Birmingham
