Economics
Ha-Joon Chang - Pelican, 2014
What is economics?
What can - and can't
it explain about the world?
Why does it matter?
In Economics: The User's
Guide, bestselling author Ha-Joon Chang explains how the global economy works,
and why anyone can understand the dismal science. Unlike many economists who
claim there is only one way of 'doing economics', he introduces readers to a
wide range of economic theories, from classical to Keynesian, revealing how they
all have their strengths, weaknesses and blind spots. By ignoring the received
wisdom, and exposing the myriad forces that shape our financial fate, Chang
provides the tools that every responsible citizen needs to understand - and
address - our current economic woes.
