God creates the world and two angels, one of whom receives a first name, symbolizing divine light. A second angel is created to support the first, but falls in love with him. God, jealous, punishes the first angel by casting him into the abyss, causing separation and the beginning of evil. The first angel, in exile, expresses his pain and transforms into a being of darkness, proclaiming himself master of his night realm, perverting divine light into venom.

When Jean Tirole won the 2014 Nobel Prize in Economics, he suddenly found himself being stopped in the street by complete strangers and asked to comment on issues of the day, no matter how distant from his own areas of research. His transformation from academic economist to public intellectual prompted him to reflect further on the role economists and their discipline play in society. The result is Economics for the Common Good, a passionate manifesto for a world in which economics, far from being a "dismal science," is a positive force for the common good.
