Thomas Sowell is the Rose and Milton Friedman Senior Fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution. Although trained as an economist, he has written on a wide range of subjects. The author of forty-nine books and a syndicated newspaper column, he was awarded the National Humanities Medal in 2002.
His aim is to show how different racial and ethnic groups have fared over time and how their experiences in America have differed. To this end he examines official reports on employment, accumulated wealth, level of education, housing, IQ, entrepreneurial activity, and many other factors.
In his work, Sowell focuses on empirical evidence rather than theoretical probabilities. It is an approach he believes is missing from modern education. “In classrooms today, your imagination is just as good as knowing the facts,” he explains.
