More Heat than Light: Economics as Social Physics, Physics as Nature's Economics - Book by Philip Mirowski

Name: More Heat than Light: Economics as Social Physics, Physics as Nature's Economics
Author: Philip Mirowski

In More Heat than Light, Philip Mirowski critiques the development of economic theory, comparing it to the physical sciences. Mirowski argues that economics has often adopted the methods and language of physics, yet fails to achieve the empirical rigor of the natural sciences. The book explores how economics has been influenced by the desire for mathematical precision and predictive models, often at the expense of understanding the social and human dimensions of economic behavior.
