"Harford (“the Undercover Economist”, as his Financial Times column terms him) is one of our most popular exponents of economic ideas. He is not (and I think even he would admit this) a blisteringly charismatic man. But, frankly, what economist is? It should be said that understanding: the economy will not necessarily make you feel any better about the economy."
