Eduardo: Excellent book for people that wants to know some concepts of economics, I use it to gather ideas about a project that I'm doing right now, the price was excellent, and would be a recommendation for people that likes to have something different in their own personal library.

Alejandro Suarez: I’ve read some comments saying “it doesn’t provide you with much information” well, I might have the answer to that.
this book was not meant to profoundly teach you everything about economics. And I use the word profoundly for a reason.
You forgot what Ricardo’s take on international trade was? You’re not sure who was the first economist who used math to prove economic theories? What about the physiocrats?
There you go, just like a big bunch of study flashcards put together. Well-written, with graphs and charts, timelines of events, and biographies.

The book cover the most important topics, theories, authors, thinkers, and events related to the subject.

pv: The topics are nicely introduced. Logically organized. I should have gone for a hardcover version as the paperback cover looks quite delicate.

AJP.: I never had the chance to study economics or anything to do with finance. After going through the pandemic and with the state of the economy currently, I was keen to get a better understanding about the economic systems that govern much of day to day life. This book is a good entry way into understanding this. My only wish is that it were more current- having some sort of examination of the last few years (especially 2020) would have been really helpful.

zacman: Fills a gap in my 'education'. Well done and thorough. Information is presented in interesting ways and placed in historical context. Enjoyable to read. The kind of a book you can pick up and select a topic anywhere in the book and learn a lot. I have purchased two more and sent one to a family member and one to a friend.

Asko Korpela: DK-Ecomomics - another Giant of Knowledge
Happy to have found DK, this fantastic source of knowlwdge, after having perused Philosophy and Politics, I grabbed my own speciality Economics, and, indeed, was not disappointed! As retired professor of economics I expected to find a repeating course of everything I had learned and lectured, written during my career. And I really found it, but not only that, but a giant wide background of it, of course the nucleus of my knowledge but also a thick layer around it, up to thick but not dense layer of unknown but interesting items.
Everything here is presented in the new revolutionary DK-way completely permeated by dense internal linkage to such an extent that it can without the least exaggeration be named a new genre, new at least to me, although I have read only ebooks already during the last five years and can consider myself a specialist in textbooks having myself published 27 editions of mainly textbooks, all in paper format. Now fingers are itching to get at least one of my obliterate, because of their strong fresh econometric foundation, texts transformed to this DK format. The same concerning my two present translations from...

Ed Evans: I've looked for a simple economics history book for decades. I bought the Kindle edition for listening and underlining key concepts. As a sociology major 45 years ago, my economics interests revolved around Malthus and Marx; so, naturally enough, these two thinkers were first on my reading list. Simple explanations for some of their key concepts find fair handling, I believe.
I sometimes wonder how Marx would appear today had he delved into ecology as a critical concept as we find it today. Marx's ideas would have benefitted from George Perkins Marsh's work on nature, for example.
I'm thinking of the commodification of our planet as private property and the new attacks on the Amazon forests and CO2 density increases. Exxon, of course, comes to mind as proof of capitalism's moral dilemmas; its embrace of moral corruption as a get rich now scheme at the cost of future generations.
Anyway, this little book should help young students increase their economics literacy. KillerOceans.Com - eddie evans
