How Economists Think: A New Way to Understand Markets, Policy, and Everyday Decisions - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Why do markets sometimes work brilliantly and fail spectacularly at other times? Why do well-intentioned policies produce unexpected consequences? And how can economic thinking help us make better decisions in everyday life?
How Economists Think is an accessible introduction to the ideas and reasoning methods economists use to understand the world. Rather than treating economics as a collection of formulas or rigid theories, this book presents it as a practical way of examining choices, incentives, trade-offs, institutions, and evidence.
Beginning with scarcity and opportunity cost, the book explains how economists build models, interpret data, evaluate cause and effect, and think about human behavior. It then applies these tools to markets, government policy, firms, employment, banking, economic growth, international trade, development, taxation, climate change, and other major issues. Clear, balanced, and free from unnecessary jargon, How Economists Think is written for students, professionals, and curious readers who want to understand economics without becoming lost in technical detail.
Inside, you will learn how to:
Recognize the trade-offs hidden inside everyday choices
Understand how incentives influence individual and institutional behavior
Distinguish correlation from causation
Evaluate the strengths and limitations of economic models
Understand why markets succeed—and why they sometimes fail
Examine public policies without ignoring their costs and unintended effects
Apply economic reasoning to decisions involving money, work, time, and opportunity
