About

review of Book

Genetski’s latest book:

“Robert Genetski proves once again that sound economic theory and reliable data can be joined to answer the biggest questions facing humanity. In Rich Nation / Poor Nation, he eloquently explains classical liberal principles and tests them using real-world data on economic growth in countries around the world. The free-market model of low taxes, deregulation, and the rule of law is shown to work again and again over time and in virtually all countries of the world. Don’t let the brevity of Genetski’s book fool you: he swiftly demolishes the arguments put forth by more prolix authors such as Thomas Piketty using plain English and easy-to-understand graphs. This book is an instant classic and belongs in every library and on the desk of everyone with an interest in human prosperity.”

What Peoples Say

“I lost count of the number of people who singled you out for praise. Some said they never thought that an economist could be such an effective and entertaining communicator. Others said your classical economic views reaffirmed what they understood to be the truth about how the market works. We had a lot of very good speakers but your presentation was the most talked-about of the conference… you were even quoted by some of the subsequent speakers!”
- J.S., Executive Director, Leading Causes
“Economics is a very complex and some would say “bland and boring topic”; Dr. Genetski has the innate ability and skill set to make this subject interesting, understandable and is able to deliver it with enjoyable humor. Additionally, he is remarkably accurate in his predictions, always sharing his scorecard from year to year. I have had Bob speak to my clients for over 20 years, our audience continues to grow always looking forward to his insight.”
- T.P.M.
“Bob has an uncanny ability to take a complicated topic like the global economy and translate it into language that business men and women can understand. He is comprehensive in his overview, articulate and entertaining in his presentation, and has huge intellectual capital. Any audience who is interested in understanding the complexities of the global economy in which we do business would benefit from hearing Bob’s message.”
- B.W., President and CEO MSCI, Metals Service Center Institute
