Becker and Posner on Bookstores

Last updated on January 9, 2011

Gary Becker and Richard Posner have, as always, two excellent posts on the future of brick-and-mortar bookstores. Becker’s post is here; Posner’s post is here.

Their posts are quite timely. Last Saturday, I aksed my wife we wanted go to Borders to see what they had after dinner, since our local store was “probably not going to be around much longer.”

I still managed to come home with Malcolm Gladwell’s What the Dog Saw and Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead.
