Reviews

“This book introduces economics to non-economists in ways that they can keep the insights with them for the rest of their lives. Even in an introductory course it manages to delve into themes like AI, climate change and cryptocurrencies, while drawing on cutting edge research from behavioural and neuroeconomics.” —Sudipta Sarangi, Professor and Chairperson of Economics, Virginia Tech and Author of ‘The Economics of Small Things’. “This is a delightful and innovative textbook that demonstrates the author’s deep commitment to teaching and student learning. His relevant and meaningful approach to economic theory and economic thinking, dealing with the major social, political, and economic issues that all of us face in today's world, is spirited and refreshing.” —Gary Gigliotti, Professor of Economics and Special Advisor (Academic Assessment), Office of the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, Rutgers University.
