A Little History of Economics

平易な英語で書かれていて、経済学の歴史について完結にまとめている。

Great

This book is mostly about the evolution of economic thought over the course of human history and is more of a book on economic theory than on "the" economy or economies. Very beginner friendly, I knew almost nothing about economics before reading and felt I was able to understand virtually everything I read.

Good book. For someone who is looking for a book to get into economics, this is a good option. The author was able to explain some of the major economic theories in a 245-page-book. The only problem is pacing. Since every economical thought is explained and unfolded in 6 pages, it could be a little exhausting to read continuously because you would be Reading a lot of new ideas. My recommendation is to read 3 chapters in a row to avoid confusion. There was not any problem with the delivery.

This book offers an introduction to a wide range of economic concepts from the earliest to the most recent, with a completely painless, economical writing style, and with concepts organised in a natural semi-historical order. The book demonstrates the continuing relevance and power of economics, but quite rightly invites an overdue reinvention of the subject.
