This Book is what Economics for Dummies should be. Instead of bombarding the reader with graphs and very dry and rather boring explanations, this book reads much more easily and is likewise much more welcoming on the subject of economics that is so often considered boring (hence the book's subtitle). It takes many different subjects and portrays them in interesting examples, with thorough, but very clear explanation. Topics include debt, international development, globalisation, economic incentives, free markets and trade. They offer great introductions into topics that one might want to become more involved in. The dash of humour found throughout the book certainly does not hurt either.
