Great Intro To Economics

I wanted to dive into the topic of economics to see if it is something that really interests me. I was delightfully surprised.
The cases presented in this book are very interesting and there is a lack of bias in these explanations. I felt as if he is only here to teach economics; which is great. Also, the concepts are explained so that they are easy to understand.

The only negative is verbal explanation of graphs. You may need to get the book to view the graphs so that you can develop a better understanding. I felt lost at times when they got into the details of complex graphs. However, I know this is the nature of economics.

This is a great buy if you want to get your feet wet with economics. My commutes are now productive.
