"Worldly Philosopher" chronicles the times and writings of
Albert O. Hirschman, one of the twentieth century's most original
and provocative thinkers. In this gripping biography, Jeremy
Adelman tells the story of a man shaped by modern horrors and
hopes, a worldly intellectual who fought for and wrote in defense
of the values of tolerance and change. This is the first major
account of Hirschman's remarkable life, and a tale of the twentieth
century as seen through the story of an astute and passionate
observer. Adelman's riveting narrative traces how Hirschman's
personal experiences shaped his unique intellectual perspective,
and how his enduring legacy is one of hope, open-mindedness, and
practical idealism.
