| Economics in One Lesson
By Henry Hazlitt
Just when you thought Economics is beyond you, someone like Hazlitt comes along and makes everything seem so simple a three-year-old could understand it. Okay, so I exaggerate, but Hazlitt does explain in plain language the flaws of today's economics policies. American-centric though it is, the book does provide a rather interesting read. -- Editor

The Great Unraveling: Losing Our Way in the New Century
By
Paul Krugman
The Great Unraveling contains Krugman's most influential columns along with new commentary. Numbers rather than words are used to explain the current rash of corporate malfeasance, the rise and fall of the stock market bubble, the federal budget and the future of Social Security, and how a huge surplus quickly became a record deficit. Krugman blames problems on the Bush administration and also rails against the news media for displaying a disturbing lack of skepticism and for failing to do even the most basic homework when reporting on business and economic issues. A galvanizing new work from America's leading economic critic—a book that will set the terms of the political debate for years to come---Editor
