Download Economics: Making sense of the Modern Economy: The Economist AudioBook Free
The real-world realities of the definately not dismal knowledge. A radically revised new edition of the highly readable, popular guide targeted at everyone from students to statesmen who want to make sense of the modern economy and understand how economical theory works in practice. It starts with the fundamentals: what economics is about; the resources of economic growth such as people and investment; the role of central banking institutions and fiscal plan in arranging the macroeconomic framework; and the economics of everything - microeconomics. From the underlying theory it moves to the details of the world overall economy: the developed world and the surge of growing economies; the problems of global imbalances and the runaway world of finance; and the recent "great" tough economy - why it happened, how it was dealt with, its effects, its legacy and the way ahead. The shutting part puts the effectiveness and the failings of economics under the spotlight, and looks at the innovative solutions being developed to make what has been called the "dismal knowledge" fit for today's world.
