Economics without the boring bits : an enlightening guide to the dismal science

Pettinger, Tejvan2021
Books
Where does wealth come from? How is it different from money? Does division of labour mean that the best people are hired to do the job? Does government intervention prevent or create crises? What is the most effective way to protect the environment? The great Scottish historian Thomas Carlyle dismissed economics as 'the dismal science', yet it is at the heart of everything we do. This book presents a clear, comprehensive and richly anecdotal guide to debt, finance, trade, money, taxation, supply, demand and all the other big issues that worry us all yet relatively few truly understand.
