I read this because I'm about to start my next OU course* - economics. It's a long, long time since I did my A-level and I thought this would be a useful way to ease back into the subject. This was a very interesting read in nice bite-sized chunks. I decided not to get too bogged down with all the details of the graphs, I thought it sufficient to know that I can look them up in the book.

While technically being quite ok, the reading between the lines says that all the bad for markets and thus for people comes from government intervention.
Hard to believe this book was written in third millennium, some of the ideas conveyed seem to come straight from the fifties: the dismissal of world overpopulation as a self-correcting issue is overwhelming. Better read something more humanity oriented.

I found this book very good at giving me an understanding of the basic theories of both micro and macro economics especially regarding the formulas as I don't have a strong maths background.

أردتُه مدخلًا كافيًا إلى عالم الإقتصاد، مصطلحاتٍ وأُسسًا. وقد كان بحمدالله وافيًا لهذا الغرض، بل ويتجاوز هذا إلى تفاصيلٍ في بعض الجوانب أكثر مما أحتاجه.
وأنا من أنصار فكرة هذه السلسلة( FOR Dummies )ومن أشدّ المعجبين بها، وكم أتمنى لو صدرت ترجمة لها بالعربية إن لم يكن سلسلة كاملة مشابهة في الغرض والطريقة، تقرّب العلم إلى من لم يختصّوا به.

Easy to read and not too dry but very much just covers the basics and 'accepted wisdom'. Anyone wanting to understand what is happening in today's global economy will be left unsatisfied
I read about half. :)
Too theoretical- for students.
Sometimes a little bit dry but it does a good job of explaining how micro and macro economics work.
