AJM: If you majored in economics you probably will skip this, but if you have an interest in business or even philosophy you will probably enjoy this.

Love the DK line of guides.

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.

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...

Somnath: If you are really struggling to make head or tell of all the economic mess we seem to be slipping into every day then, this is the book you need. It beautifully describes all the micro and macro economic concepts along with the reason behind their development, that too with beautiful images!
