![]() Economics in One Lesson: The Shortest and Surest Way to Understand Basic Economics $13.95 This is a great introduction to economic analysis. It is very well written and the examples are still surprisingly current. Bad economic thinking plagues the political and mediatic scene. Hazlitt focuses his effort on a key mistake, that of ignoring the unseen possibilities (or opportunity cost). ![]() Naked Economics: Undressing the Dismal Science $15.95 I read Naked Economics and Freakonomics around the same time. Naked Economics is much better in explaining the real economics and much more coherent than Freakonomics. At the end of each chapter, you would learn something, of which Freakonomics failed to do. Freakonomics is nothing but a bunch of incoherent stories. It tries makes the comparison and contrast internesting, but that's about it, making the stories interesting. But you learn nothing. If I were to choose again, I'm picking Naked Economics. ![]() Principles of Economics, 4th Edition (Student Edition) $220.95 Item was listed in good condition, I would list it as closer to average or poor. The pages are separating from the cover and there is a number of unrelated comments scribbled in there, some using profanity. But the price was certainly right. |
