Synopsis
How much do you know about the economy? Different politicians tell us what they are going to do, but does it make any sense economically? There are rules of economics that are mostly very common sense and don't change much over time, like the law of supply and demand. It might be a smart move to have this book on your shelf to give you an important reference. Economics is renowned for its conversational writing style, and for treating standard economic concepts as tools for making judgments as opposed to inflexible rules. This latest edition features updated international analysis along with more in-depth coverage of increasingly vital outsourcing issues than any other principles text. A new discussion of behavioral economics includes an examination of the work of Richard Thaler, the ultimatum game, and the status quo bias.
