The Minerva Review is a collection of important ideas, conceptual models, theoretical frameworks and heuristic techniques that can be applied to support better rational, strategic, investment and policy decision making. It follows the works of contemporary literature and leading thinkers across topics in economics, public policy and finance, and on occasions across broader disciplines in the social, natural, formal and applied sciences.
The project commenced in late 2018 and is curated by an economist who wanted to consolidate his wider reading over time. It is named after Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, medicine, commerce, handicrafts, poetry, the arts and strategic warfare. Her affinities and etymology (derived from Latin for ‘to remember’ or meminisse) is perhaps a fitting title and representation of ideals for this project.
