Description
In this fifth edition of Basic Economics , Thomas Sowell revises and updates his popular book on common sense economics, bringing the world into clearer focus through a basic understanding of the fundamental economic principles and how they explain our lives. Drawing on lively examples from around the world and from centuries of history, Sowell explains basic economic principles for the general public in plain English. Basic Economics , which has now been translated into six languages and has additional material online, remains true to its core principle: that the fundamental facts and principles of economics do not require jargon, graphs, or equations, and can be learned in a relaxed and even enjoyable way.

Review quote
"Basic Economics demonstrates Thomas Sowell's ability to make economics understandable to a person who hasn't set foot in an economics class. It's a book rich with explanations and examples of everyday economics issues."--Walter E. Williams, John M. Olin Distinguished Professor Economics, George Mason University
