Read a short excerpt

From “Why these ideas belong together”:

The practical aim is modest: understand what a proposal depends on before handing over the money. A Nobel-winning idea can improve that understanding. It cannot make the future certain, and this book does not use the award as an endorsement of a product or investment strategy.

An independent publication, not affiliated with or endorsed by Nobel institutions or named laureates.
