What the Mob is Saying...
Naked Economics: Undressing the Dismal Science by Charles Wheelan is a must read for anyone interested in the inner workings of economics. Wheelan's easy-to-read gem rescues the lay-economist from the drudgery of traditional economics text by using words rather than math to illustrate the principles of economic thinking. In Naked Economics the reader is exposed to price theory, international monetary theory and the impact of globalization all told within the realm of familiar experiences.
It is not often that you find a book on Economics that inspires students to claim a love of the Dismal Science but from the picture painted in the reviews on Amazon.com, Charles Wheelan succeeds in achieving this momentous task.
If you are new to the studies of economics, or are just looking for a new book written with a sense of style and wit found in The Economist, you will be hard pressed to find a better choice than Naked Economics.

- Nice lens! You've got a lot of great resources listed here. I've got a lens on understanding the new global economy and would love it if you'd stop by and say hello when you get a chance.
