A provocative and lively exploration of the increasingly important world of macroeconomics, by the author of the bestselling The Undercover Economist.
Thanks to the worldwide financial upheaval, economics is no longer a topic we can ignore. From politicians to hedge fund managers to middle-class IRA holders, everyone must pay attention to how and why the global economy works the way it does.

With the wit of a raconteur and the clear grasp of an expert, Harford explains what s really happening beyond today s headlines, why all of us should care, and what we can do about it to understand it better.
