This book was written for Christians in particular, but you don't need to be a Christian to understand and appreciate everything it says about economics. The stories of the Bible show that economic principles are timeless and universal. What applies now applied then. That is why we can relate to them. Church leaders regularly use the Bible to justify many of their recommendations for political intervention in critical areas of our lives, interventions that often have negative, even disastrous consequences. Why is it that so many programs promoted by so many well-meaning people turn out to have no lasting positive effect or, in fact, such negative results? This book explores why.

� propos de l?auteur

After years of intense research into economic, political and philosophical writings, as well as the Bible, his efforts are now focused on writing, consulting, and entrepreneurship. He holds a bachelor of science degree from Cornell University and a bachelor of science in accounting degree, Summa Cum Laude, from the State University of New York at Fredonia. Mr. McLaughlin is co-founder of several NGOs in Africa and advisor to and investor in several startup enterprises there, recognizing that entrepreneurship, freedom, and markets are the solutions to the problems of poverty and lack of development.

Description de la librairie

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
