E-Books →Economics for Everyone A Short Guide to the Economics of Capitalism, 2nd Edition

Now in its second edition, Economics for Everyone is an antidote to the abstract and ideological way that economics is normally taught and reported. Key concepts such as finance, competition, and wages are explored, and their importance to everyday life is revealed. Stanford answers such questions as "Do workers need capitalists," "Why does capitalism harm the environment," and "What really happens on the stock market."
Illustrated with humorous and educational cartoons by Tony Biddle, and supported with a comprehensive set of web-based course materials for popular economics courses, this book will appeal to students of social sciences who need to engage with economics as well as anyone seeking to better understand today's economy.
