Geoffrey M. Hodgson is research professor at Hertfordshire Business School, University of Hertfordshire, England, and the author or coauthor of over a dozen books.
Hodgson is among the most interesting scholars writing today on the history of economic and social thought. In Wrong Turnings, he provides a highly illuminating and interesting discussion of the meanderings over the years of the intellectual orientation of the political Left. His arguments broadened and in some ways reoriented my thinking about a number of political and ideological issues. --Richard Nelson, Columbia University
