Book excerpt: A TIME-SAVING, EASY AND INTERESTING WAY TO MASTER ECONOMICS IS HERE IN THIS BOOK!To many GCE “A” Level students, a number of concepts in economics are abstruse and daunting, even dry and boring.This book addresses this problem by bringing such concepts down to a “bitable, digestible and interesting” level. GCE “A” Level students and students preparing for other economics exams such as the BBA, RSA, LCCI, GRE, and even the GCE “O” Level, exams should find this book useful, interesting and reader-friendly, especially for quick revision. The book covers more than the GCE “A” Level Economics syllabus.It is not necessary to have a basic foundation in economics to pick up economics with all its abstruseness and complexities, as this book explains the ideas of economics in as simple and accessible a fashion as possible, whereby even lay people, e.g., general readers without any knowledge of economics at all, would benefit.There is a slew of very important economic knowledge and insights in the Quick Revision Notes, Articles To Stimulate Economic Reasoning and Appendix.There is also a number of useful business ideas, e.g., marketing concepts, entrepreneurship, finance and banking, etc., which should be of interest to both economics students (who are budding or potential business practitioners) and business practitioners alike. The ideas in this book are expected to stimulate, provoke, thought, interest, even controversy and debate, as economics is not an exact science - this should make economics meaningful and “come alive” (and not just another boring subject for passing exams).The author is optimistic, and, hopeful, that the implementation of these ideas would solve or, at least, alleviate our economic and social problems and greatly benefit our society.This book is also aimed at making economics not only easy and accessible, but, interesting, challenging and meaningful for everyone interested in or concerned about the economic well-being of our society, student sitting for economics exams or not!Economics is indeed important and should not be studied just for the sake of passing exams but for understanding and solving our economic and (related) societal problems as well, problems such as recession, unemployment, poverty, etc., which affect all of us one way or another whether we like it or not!THIS BOOK SERIOUSLY ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE AND, HENCE, THE IMPORTANCE, CHALLENGE AND MEANINGFULNESS OF THIS BOOK! THE BOOK, WHICH HAS NOW BEEN EXPANDED, HAS BEEN ADOPTED AS A REFERENCE TEXT BY THE INSTITUTIONS WHERE THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN TEACHING. FOR THIS NEW AND EXPANDED EDITION, THREE STIMULATING, IMPORTANT ARTICLES, "THE EFFECT OF TECHNOLOGY ON THE ECONOMY", "THE ROLE OF GREED IN THE ECONOMY" AND "WHY ECONOMICS DOES NOT SOLVE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS AND WHAT TO DO", ARE ADDED.

So what excuse is there for adding yet another book to this huge pile?Most of the other economics books are lengthy, or loaded with mathematics or technical jargon, or just plain dull to read. Economics wasn't called "the dismal science" for nothing.This book is very short. It is not at all mathematical or technical, and it is lively to read. It still includes all the important basic ideas and concepts of economics. But it explains them in words that are easy to understand.

Book excerpt: The bestselling citizen's guide to economics Basic Economics is a citizen's guide to economics, written for those who want to understand how the economy works but have no interest in jargon or equations. Bestselling economist Thomas Sowell explains the general principles underlying different economic systems: capitalist, socialist, feudal, and so on. In readable language, he shows how to critique economic policies in terms of the incentives they create, rather than the goals they proclaim. With clear explanations of the entire field, from rent control and the rise and fall of businesses to the international balance of payments, this is the first book for anyone who wishes to understand how the economy functions. This fifth edition includes a new chapter explaining the reasons for large differences of wealth and income between nations. Drawing on lively examples from around the world and from centuries of history, Sowell explains basic economic principles for the general public in plain English.
Download or read book Economics in One Lesson written by Henry Hazlitt and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2010-08-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over a million copies sold, Economics in One Lesson is an essential guide to the basics of economic theory. A fundamental influence on modern libertarianism, Hazlitt defends capitalism and the free market from economic myths that persist to this day. Considered among the leading economic thinkers of the “Austrian School,” which includes Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich (F.A.) Hayek, and others, Henry Hazlitt (1894-1993), was a libertarian philosopher, an economist, and a journalist. He was the founding vice-president of the Foundation for Economic Education and an early editor of The Freeman magazine, an influential libertarian publication. Hazlitt wrote Economics in One Lesson, his seminal work, in 1946. Concise and instructive, it is also deceptively prescient and far-reaching in its efforts to dissemble economic fallacies that are so prevalent they have almost become a new orthodoxy. Economic commentators across the political spectrum have credited Hazlitt with foreseeing the collapse of the global economy which occurred more than 50 years after the initial publication of Economics in One Lesson. Hazlitt’s focus on non-governmental solutions, strong — and strongly reasoned — anti-deficit position, and general emphasis on free markets, economic liberty of individuals, and the dangers of government intervention make Economics in One Lesson every bit as relevant and valuable today as it has been since publication.

Download or read book Concrete Economics written by Stephen S. Cohen and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “an excellent new book” — Paul Krugman, The New York Times History, not ideology, holds the key to growth. Brilliantly written and argued, Concrete Economics shows how government has repeatedly reshaped the American economy ever since Alexander Hamilton’s first, foundational redesign. This book does not rehash the sturdy and long-accepted arguments that to thrive, entrepreneurial economies need a broad range of freedoms. Instead, Steve Cohen and Brad DeLong remedy our national amnesia about how our economy has actually grown and the role government has played in redesigning and reinvigorating it throughout our history. The government not only sets the ground rules for entrepreneurial activity but directs the surges of energy that mark a vibrant economy. This is as true for present-day Silicon Valley as it was for New England manufacturing at the dawn of the nineteenth century. The authors’ argument is not one based on abstract ideas, arcane discoveries, or complex correlations. Instead it is based on the facts—facts that were once well known but that have been obscured in a fog of ideology—of how the US economy benefited from a pragmatic government approach to succeed so brilliantly. Understanding how our economy has grown in the past provides a blueprint for how we might again redesign and reinvigorate it today, for such a redesign is sorely needed.
