Economics in One Lesson: The Shortest and Surest Way to Understand Basic Economics

A good book on economics for a novice and expert alike. A must read classic. I loved it. Very informational.

One of the most valuable fundamental for the buisness mindsets Greet to see it 📚

A book written during the heyday of communism condemning welfare state becomes all the more appealing what with fall of communism world over....it may warrant yet another "30 years later" chapter.

Personlly, I approached this book without having any idea of what it is. I was merely told that this is the economics Bible. I did not even properly look at the cover of the book when I picked it up and started reading. But only after reading a few pages, I realised that this book does not teach economy. It is merely trying to justify a certain school of thought. Then I closed it, and noticed the recommendation by Ayn Rand on the cover. I was like, "Oh No!" However, just because I do not agree with the author does not mean I should rate it low. This book does its job very well, which is to explain one side of the story. It uses simple language, is concise, and illustrates its points with examples. It is your responsibility as a reader to also read authors who tell the other side of the story.

Easy to understand

The quality of the book’s paper is very poor.

Best book for beginners, explained with short and relevant examples (general statistics and policies which have already been implemented) against each theory. The chapters touch most of the important topics and opens the doors which a normal mind wouldn't even think of!

It was a good read. For those of us who are anti neo liberals. It is good to hear straight from the horse's mouth on good intentioned laissez faire, so that having heard them, we can challenge its premises, world vision and value systems with our own life experiences as among the 99%

Good

Best most concise book for learning how economics really work. A bit of a eye opener in many topics, specially for people that have been wrong their whole lives, its a pill hard to swallow for them, that is why there are a few negative reviews, just don't get misled by them and read this gem.

Gran libro para conceptos generales. Muy recomendable para primeras tomas de contacto.

in one chapter, the author argues against government intervention to save certain industries using agriculture as an example. he does make a good point which he explains with clear details such as “if you give something to someone, the selected one, someone else will be left with nothing” which is true to a certain extend. however, why not using the financial sector as an example? right, that’s the point I’m making here. it still remains a good read for any economics student. I still recommend it

Exactly as advertised! Pretty and good printing quality.
