Going against the grain of contemporary neo-institutional and behavioral economics which privilege observation over understanding, she asserts her vision of “humanomics,” which draws on the work of Bart Wilson, Vernon Smith, and most prominently, Adam Smith. She a...

For necromancer Johannes Cabal, dealing with devils, demons and raising the dead is pretty much par for the course.
