This audiobook was originally inspired by Harry Truman, who said, "Give me a one-handed economist!" As an empiricist I advocate that no ideology is right or wrong but that conditions and data are all that should drive our policymaking decisions.

The world is complex; Harry Truman needed a Three Handed Economist; one hand was never enough.
