Product details

Synopsis:
Looking at familiar situations in unfamiliar ways, The Undercover Economist is a fresh explanation of the fundamental principles of the modern economy, illuminated by examples from the streets of London to the booming skyscrapers of Shanghai to the sleepy canals of Bruges. Leaving behind textbook jargon and equations, Tim Harford reveals the games of signals and negotiations, contests of strength and battles of wit that drive not only the economy at large but the everyday choices we make.

From the author:
Tim Harford presented the BBC2 TV series Trust Me I'm an Economist and writes the 'Dear Economist' column for the FT Saturday magazine. An award-winning public speaker, Tim has been an economist for a major oil company and an economics tutor at Oxford University.
