“I realize by writing that I risk losing about half of the bookshop browsers who have picked it up in the hope of coming across something interesting. But hold on. This is also a book about economics quite unlike any other. There are no tricky diagrams of the kind that leaves you wondering whether the page has been printed the right way up. There are no complicated mathematical equations. Unless something can be easily explained, it has no place here. Above all, at a time when we all need to kno...w some economics, it is intensely practical. It will not necessarily make you a millionaire – I always say that the only economists you see driving Rolls-Royces are wearing chauffeurs’ caps – but it will tell you about the process by which we become, mainly, better off. It is also, I hope, good fun. The aim of this book is to fill a gap, just like a good lunch. For years, at the Sunday Times and elsewhere, readers have been asking me to recommend an easily digestible book on economics, either for non-economists or for those whose grasp of it is a little rusty.MoreLessRead More Read Less
