    Description

    Here Partha Dasgupta, an internationally recognized authority in economics, presents readers with a solid introduction to its basic concepts, including efficiency, equity, sustainability, dynamic equilibrium, property rights, markets and public goods. Throughout, he highlights the relevance of economics to everyday life, providing a very human exploration of a technical subject.

    Dasgupta covers enduring issues such as population growth, the environment, and poverty. For example, he explores how the world's looming population problems affect us at the local, national, and international level. Economics has the capacity to offer us deep insights into some of the most formidable problems of life. Here, Dasgupta goes beyond the basics to show it's innate effects on our history, culture, and lifestyles.

    Great Book to know some economics

    This is great book for you to understand some economics. Another good book is Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell.

    The voice of Gayle Hendrix is really sweet! Worth your Money.

    Half good, half a tad dull

    This is a good intro to economics. The beginning of the book was quite interesting and engaging but towards the end a little less so. I enjoyed the comparison of the life and opportunities of a girl in the West and a girl in the rural undeveloped world. But for some reason the book is not as engaging in the second half of the book.

    Not the introduction I was expecting.

    What was most disappointing about Partha Dasgupta’s story?

    The writer jumps around between topics and, in doing so, loses clarity. For a clearer, more comprehensive and stimulating introduction to economics, which includes the history of economic thought, I would recommend Thomas Sowell's Basic Economics. It is far superior!

    Don't purchase this audio book.

    1/3 of this book is economics but the other 2/3 feels like sociology. I would rather buy a normal or traditional economics textbook instead of listening to this audio book.
