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.

Professor Sowell has written an exceptionally clear exposition on economics, in this book. It is not filled with graphs and calculus. Instead it focuses on historical examples to explain the precepts of economic theory. Very effective.

Basic Economics
Wish I had read this book before taking college economics. Very readable. Excellent explanation of economic principles. You will look at all the current political comments on the economy in a different light after you read this book.
