Economic Literacy: What Everyone Needs to Know About Money & Markets
by Jacob De Rooy
Gross domestic product, business cycles, Consumer Price Index, prime rate: terms we read in the newspapers, but possibly don't fully comprehend. With humor, clarity, and a deft touch for simplifying complex ideas, Jacob De Rooy explains the basic concepts of economics in language anyone can understand. Written in accessible question-and-answer format, and divided into 26 concise articles, the book can be used in two ways: read straight through as a short course in economics, or dipped into as a reference work. Throughout the text, anecdotal examples illustrate economic ideas in real-life terms.
