"Everyone can benefit from reading "Everyday Economics". Officer's practical advice based on classical economics will have you thinking twice about decisions you took for granted in the past. From personal finance to globalization, "Everyday Economics" will help you to put your decisions within a logical framework designed to improve outcomes."--Norman Obst, Professor of Economics, Michigan State University"No dry technical jargon here, just how business and the world work in laymen's terms. It's like talking with your favorite uncle, except this uncle understands economics. Economic reasoning is an important life skill, and this book has a lot of practical advice."--Helen Roberts, Clinical Associate Professor and Associate Director, Center for Economic Education, University of Illinois at Chicago
