À propos de cet audio

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Economics: The User's Guide, A Pelican Book, by Ha-Joon Chang, read by Jonathan Keeble.

What is economics?
How does the global economy work?
What do different economic theories tell us about the world?

In Economics: The User's Guide, bestselling author Ha-Joon Chang explains how the global economy works, and why anyone can understand the dismal science. Unlike many economists who claim there is only one way of 'doing economics', he introduces readers to a wide range of economic theories, from classical to Keynesian, revealing how they all have their strengths, weaknesses and blind spots. By ignoring the received wisdom, and exposing the myriad forces that shape our financial fate, Chang provides the tools that every responsible citizen needs to understand - and address - our current economic woes.

I enjoyed this book, but it's primarily a reference work and would work better as a physical book. at the beginning, the author gives useful tips on the best ways to skim in order to get the most out of the material, but it's not possible to skim through an audiobook. despite this, I enjoyed the material, and I may revisit several chapters.

the author leans left, but he has a broad pluralistic approach to economics. the majority of the material covers development economics, Keynesian economics and neoclassical economics, but there are also sections on Austrian economics, Marxist economics, Schumpeterian economics, institutional economics, classical economics and behavioral economics. each chapter has easily digestible subsections and ends with a list of recommended readings.
