Applied Economics

Thinking Beyond Stage One: Second Edition

By: Thomas Sowell

Narrated by: Bill Wallace

Applied Economics is an accessible guide to how our economic decisions develop. It explains the application of economics to major world problems, including housing, medical care, discrimination, and the economic development of nations. The book is based on an international view of economics, includes examples from around the world, and shows how certain incentives and constraints produce similar outcomes among disparate peoples and cultures.©2009 Thomas Sowell (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
