ssss1SAMUELSON señala, respecto al estilo de Hicks: «A final element of luck enhanced Hicks’ total impact on the field. He was privileged to be able to write well and knew how to blow his own horn». Sabía escribir bien y «darse bombo». Por su parte, John Creedy señala: «And while his work often involved highly technical material, he wrote in a style that attracted a wide audience at a time when most economists did not have his mathematical training», aunque, luego, matiza: «In later years Hicks’s style became somewhat prolix as he took it for granted that his readers were interested in knowing every twist and turn in his own developing understanding of a subject (…) Hicks would take several different paths in turn, each time stopping mid-way with a long silence, until producing his final eloquent preferred response».
