Manfred Max-Neef

Just discovered that Manfred Max-Neef's classic "From the Outside Looking In-Experiences in Barefoot Economics" is available in it's entirety, all 210 pages, in .pdf here:

Also available in paperback, recent reprint here:    But at $142.15 for a used paperback, the .pdf seems viable even for those that like the feel of a book.

May be the best economist alive.

He is co-author of a book due out December 15, 2010:

Economics Unmasked: From Power and Greed to Compassion and the Common Good by Manfred Max-Neef and Philip B. Smith (Paperback - Dec 15, 2010)

"Mathematics  brought rigor to economics. It also brought mortis"---Kenneth Boulding
