The Undercover Economist Strikes Back: How to Run or Ruin an Economy

A million readers bought @18@The Undercover Economist@19@ to get the lowdown on how economics works on a small scale, in our everyday lives. Since then, economics has become big news. Crises, austerity, riots, bonuses - all are in the headlines all the time. But how does this large-scale economic world really work? What would happen if we cancelled everyone's debt? How do you create a job? Will the BRIC countries take over the world? Asking - among many other things -- what the future holds for the Euro, why the banks are still paying record bonuses and where government borrowing will take us, in @18@The Undercover Economist Strikes Back@19@, Tim Harford returns with his trademark clarity and wit to explain what's really going on - and what it means for us all.
