Michael S. Weisbach is the Ralph W. Kurtz Chair in Finance at Ohio State University and a research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. He lives in Columbus, Ohio.
"Mr. Weisbach shows how to understand economics in a way that’s
entertaining for anyone who has ever been a student, or simply
likes to read, write or talk economics. It is aimed at economics
professors, and appears to give the inside scoop on teaching. In
reality, anyone with a bit of curiosity is enticed to look at how
it’s done."---John B. Taylor, Wall Street Journal
"The Economist's Craft is indeed a value addition and can serve as
a guideline . . . to develop a unique position within the academic
society."---Satya Sahoo, WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs
"Weisbach’s book is one of the most comprehensive books. . . that
cover all aspects of one’s academic development, starting from life
as a PhD student, to life as a junior faculty, and life after
securing tenure."---Stephen Gong, WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs
