In volume one of “The Uncertain Legacy" members of a family who held extremely rigid and diametrically opposed views about the value of religion and science met to discuss a financial and philosophical legacy their father wanted to pass on to them. Instead they ended up debating the merits of the various opposing certainties which each was determined to believe. Since none of the family was willing to admit to the uncertainty of their beliefs, none were granted any part of the legacy. In this volume, the family visits their father again because they need help due to the economic and political stress they are experiencing. This time their father attempts to show them how uncertainty penetrates the very foundation of economic theory and accepted economic dogma. Their father proposes that while there is nothing wrong with discovering or creating temporary truths about the nature of economics, (indeed it is necessary to do so), we must also entertain more than a little doubt about these “ truths".
