Book Reviews of Basic Economics 3rd Ed: A Common Sense Guide to the Economy

Book Review: Interesting and informative
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent book if, like me, you don't know much about economics. Explains alot of concepts in depth and clearly. Can get a bit long winded at times, but you come away well informed of different ecomomic principles.

Contains some excellent bashing of politicians and politics.

Gets five stars for clarity and content.
