An accessible, thoroughly engaging look at how the economy
really works and its role in your everyday life
Not surprisingly, regular people suddenly are paying a lot
closer attention to the economy than ever before. But economics,
with its weird technical jargon and knotty concepts and formulas
can be a very difficult subject to get to grips with on your own.
Enter Greg Ip and his Little Book of Economics. Like a
patient, good-natured tutor, Greg, one of today's most respected
economics journalists, walks you through everything you need to
know about how the economy works. Short on technical jargon and
long on clear, concise, plain-English explanations of important
terms, concepts, events, historical figures and major players, this
revised and updated edition of Greg's bestselling guide clues you
in on what's really going on, what it means to you and what we
should be demanding our policymakers do about the economy going
forward.
* From inflation to the Federal Reserve, taxes to the budget
deficit, you get indispensible insights into everything that really
matters about economics and its impact on everyday life
* Special sections featuring additional resources of every
subject discussed and where to find additional information to help
you learn more about an issue and keep track of ongoing
developments
* Offers priceless insights into the roots of America's economic
crisis and its aftermath, especially the role played by excessive
greed and risk-taking, and what can be done to avoid another
economic cataclysm
* Digs into globalization, the roots of the Euro crisis, the
sources of China's spectacular growth, and why the gap between the
economy's winners and losers keeps widening
