520    The author sets out to apply the rules of economics to 
       save his floundering love life. For a time, everything 
       seems to be clearer, but soon he finds himself more 
       isolated than ever. It looks like economics doesn't have 
       all the answers after all. Not, that is, until John 
       Maynard Keynes comes along.
