Nevertheless, intellectually, the book is pretty interesting. There are multiple facets, related to economics, but the focus for the book is a kind of "trial" of classical economics, symbolized by the character trying to obtain tenure, before the viewpoints of the spectrum of social sciences, also symbolized by various people on the faculty of Harvard University, which, in itself, was a symbol of "ultimate" current prestige. The various points of view conflict and interact to create the "fatal equilibrium" of the title. I thought the book was a lot of fun, and a little intellectual feast as well. Review: Classic mystery with economics as a side benefit - This is a mystery with all the features of a classic mystery. Since the protagonist is an economist (and it was written by a professor of economics who really knows the material) the motivation is given based on economics theory. The book is scattered with examples of economics thoughts, largely in context (though if you think about it as a book rather than being absorbed by the story you realize the author designed the story to have a place to put the economics). The economics theory is interesting in its own right and short enough pieces that it isn't irritating. Don't let the economics shorts distract you from the fact that this is a full blown mystery! Enjoy the mystery and the science. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #797,124 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,014 in Hard-Boiled Mystery #4,729 in Science Fiction Crime & Mystery #22,074 in Suspense Thrillers | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (89) | | Dimensions | 4.19 x 0.56 x 6.73 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 0345331583 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0345331588 | | Item Weight | 7.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 208 pages | | Publication date | July 12, 1986 | | Publisher | Fawcett | ## Images ![Fatal Equilibrium: A Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ffKIEuHqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ dynamic equilibrium *by M***E on November 30, 2015* This mystery was not that much of a mystery, per se, since several clues made the trend of the book rather straightforward. Nevertheless, intellectually, the book is pretty interesting. There are multiple facets, related to economics, but the focus for the book is a kind of "trial" of classical economics, symbolized by the character trying to obtain tenure, before the viewpoints of the spectrum of social sciences, also symbolized by various people on the faculty of Harvard University, which, in itself, was a symbol of "ultimate" current prestige. The various points of view conflict and interact to create the "fatal equilibrium" of the title. I thought the book was a lot of fun, and a little intellectual feast as well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic mystery with economics as a side benefit *by R***. on March 22, 2014* This is a mystery with all the features of a classic mystery. Since the protagonist is an economist (and it was written by a professor of economics who really knows the material) the motivation is given based on economics theory. The book is scattered with examples of economics thoughts, largely in context (though if you think about it as a book rather than being absorbed by the story you realize the author designed the story to have a place to put the economics).

Enjoy the mystery and the science. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Quick Read, Good For Economics Students *by J***E on January 10, 2012* I had to read this book for my Microeconomics class and was surprised to actually find it interesting. Fatal Equilibrium is well written and is a good read for anyone interested in economics. The book incorporates economic principals without making the story too dull. I recommend this book to anyone interested in econ or looking for a quick read. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4751400-fatal-equilibrium-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4751400-fatal-equilibrium-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
