Economics Simplified is a revised edition of Economics Made Easy with additional topics on macroeconomics. Economics Simplified is written for beginners studying economics and related subjects. The book is suitable for both conventional and non-conventional students as a complete course materials or part of a course in all nations. Having been a Universitylecturer for quite a while, my intention in writing the book is to produce a reading material, which learners can read and understand independently. When one reads the chapters, one discovers that the writing style is simple and straightforward, ideal for both economics students and those in related disciplines. The book is worldwide focused; hence it is suitable for readers in both developing and developed nations.The current publication is divided into two parts comprising twenty chapters. The chapters cover two branches of economics, microeconomics and macroeconomics. The first chapter is an introduction to economics. In this chapter, apart from various definitions of economics presented, the fundamental economic problems in any society such as what to produce, how to produce and for whom to produce, are also highlighted. In as much as majority of students do not seem to enjoy the use of mathematics as a means of problem solving in economics. Therefore, in order to make the book friendly to beginners, Chapter 2 introduces readers to simple economics tools, such as equations, tables and graphs. Chapters 3, 4 and 7 present theories of production, consumer behavior and cost respectively. In these chapters, insight will be gained into how a producer can minimize cost and maximize output; and also how a consumer can maximize utility given the limited resources at his or her disposal. Chapters 5 and 6 discuss theories of demand and supply of commodities, that is how consumers and producers tend to react to price changes and other factors that influence buying and selling of goods in the market. Chapter 8 briefly introduces forms of business organization. In the last part of microeconomics, the structural patterns of perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition and oligopoly markets are discussed in Chapters 9, 10, 11 and 12. In part two of the textbook, introduction to macroeconomics is presented in chapter 13. The rest of the chapters under macroeconomics are; measuring macroeconomic activity in chapter 14, consumption and saving in chapter 15, theory of money in chapter 16, banking and money supply in chapter 17, theory of unemployment in chapter 18, theory of inflation in chapter 19, and international trade, balance of payments and foreign exchange rates in chapter 20.Knowledge is better than opinion, so they say; therefore acquiring knowledge of economics is important for the prudent management of available resources and attainment of sustainable development in any nation. Considering how important the subject is, knowledge of economics and the appropriate usage of it would increase wealth and improve living standard ofsociety. Therefore, Economics Simplified would also be relevant in agricultural, financial, health, mining, tourism sectors and other organisations striving for optimal allocation and utilisation of resources. The good thing about this book is that, apart from practical examples used for easy understanding, it has been designed as a link between elementary and advanced levels of the subject. In short, Economics Simplified is friendly to read for everyone at every level of study. The style of the writing will augment the rate of understanding of the principles of economics.

Here is an illuminating, insightful, and wonderfully witty journey of discovery through the often confusing financial markets, offering clear, relatable explanations and definitions of the system’s various instruments, yet less simplistically than the popular ...for Dummies series.

#1 New York Times Bestseller “Significant...The book is both instructive and surprisingly moving.” —The New York Times Ray Dalio, one of the world’s most successful investors and entrepreneurs, shares the unconventional principles that he’s developed, refined, and used over the past forty years to create unique results in both life and business—and which any person or organization can adopt to help achieve their goals. In 1975, Ray Dalio founded an investment firm, Bridgewater Associates, out of his two-bedroom apartment in New York City. Forty years later, Bridgewater has made more money for its clients than any other hedge fund in history and grown into the fifth most important private company in the United States, according to Fortune magazine. Dalio himself has been named to Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. Along the way, Dalio discovered a set of unique principles that have led to Bridgewater’s exceptionally effective culture, which he describes as “an idea meritocracy that strives to achieve meaningful work and meaningful relationships through radical transparency.” It is these principles, and not anything special about Dalio—who grew up an ordinary kid in a middle-class Long Island neighborhood—that he believes are the reason behind his success. In Principles, Dalio shares what he’s learned over the course of his remarkable career. He argues that life, management, economics, and investing can all be systemized into rules and understood like machines. The book’s hundreds of practical lessons, which are built around his cornerstones of “radical truth” and “radical transparency,” include Dalio laying out the most effective ways for individuals and organizations to make decisions, approach challenges, and build strong teams. He also describes the innovative tools the firm uses to bring an idea meritocracy to life, such as creating “baseball cards” for all employees that distill their strengths and weaknesses, and employing computerized decision-making systems to make believability-weighted decisions. While the book brims with novel ideas for organizations and institutions, Principles also offers a clear, straightforward approach to decision-making that Dalio believes anyone can apply, no matter what they’re seeking to achieve. Here, from a man who has been called both “the Steve Jobs of investing” and “the philosopher king of the financial universe” (CIO magazine), is a rare opportunity to gain proven advice unlike anything you’ll find in the conventional business press.

With over a million copies sold, Economics in One Lesson is an essential guide to the basics of economic theory. A fundamental influence on modern libertarianism, Hazlitt defends capitalism and the free market from economic myths that persist to this day. Considered among the leading economic thinkers of the “Austrian School,” which includes Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich (F.A.) Hayek, and others, Henry Hazlitt (1894-1993), was a libertarian philosopher, an economist, and a journalist. He was the founding vice-president of the Foundation for Economic Education and an early editor of The Freeman magazine, an influential libertarian publication. Hazlitt wrote Economics in One Lesson, his seminal work, in 1946. Concise and instructive, it is also deceptively prescient and far-reaching in its efforts to dissemble economic fallacies that are so prevalent they have almost become a new orthodoxy. Economic commentators across the political spectrum have credited Hazlitt with foreseeing the collapse of the global economy which occurred more than 50 years after the initial publication of Economics in One Lesson. Hazlitt’s focus on non-governmental solutions, strong — and strongly reasoned — anti-deficit position, and general emphasis on free markets, economic liberty of individuals, and the dangers of government intervention make Economics in One Lesson every bit as relevant and valuable today as it has been since publication.
