Editorial Reviews

Gary Becker

"I recommend this book to anyone who wants to gain an understanding of basic economics with little pain and much pleasure."

Deborah Copaken Kogan

"Bravo, Charles Wheelan, for doing the impossible: making the study of economics fascinating, comprehensible, and laugh-out-loud funny."

Chicago Tribune

Translates the arcane and often inscrutable jargon of the professional economist into language accessible to the inquiring but frustrated layman. . . . Clear, concise, informative, [and] witty.

Burton G. Malkiel

Wheelan has an anti-Midas touch. If he touched gold he would turn it to life. —Burton G. Malkiel, from the foreword

Book

Explains our global economy in a way that is—gasp!—actually entertaining.
