Introducing Economics
Introducing Economics: A Graphic Guide | David Orrell
1 post | 1 read
Brand-new INTRODUCING guide to the subject that really makes the world go round. Economics was described by the English economist Lionel Robbins in 1935 as 'the science of scarcity' but these days economics is everywhere, and it's never been more popular - as bestselling books such as Freakanomics attest. But what is economics really all about? What do the great economists think, and what can economics do for us today? David Orrell, author of Economyths, explains all in Introducing's trademark intelligent but witty stle, accompanied by brilliant illustrations from the legendary Borin van Loon.

So true! Economics is a subject I thought I knew pretty much nothing about. However, it‘s showing me just how a lot of things are linked. As well as a lot of economic theories, his little book refers to several philosophers and even the impact of the Moon landings on the state of money around the world.
