What causes poverty? Are economic crises inevitable under capitalism? Is government intervention in an economy a helpful approach or a disastrous idea? The answers to such basic economic questions matter to everyone, yet the unfamiliar jargon and math of economics can seem daunting. This clear, accessible, and even humorous book is ideal for young listeners new to economics and to all listeners who seek a better understanding of the full sweep of economic history and ideas.

Happiness as a Second Language teaches happiness step-by-step, in the same manner as one would learn a new language. Each chapter builds on the concepts and exercises in the previous one, starting with the most basic lessons, progressing through the intermediate stages, and finally graduating to the more advanced concepts.

It's a summer's evening in Amsterdam, and two couples meet at a fashionable restaurant for dinner. Between mouthfuls of food and over the polite scrapings of cutlery, the conversation remains a gentle hum of polite discourse - the banality of work, the triviality of the holidays. But behind the empty words, terrible things need to be said, and with every forced smile and every new course, the knives are being sharpened. Each couple has a 15-year-old son. The two boys are united by their accountability for a single horrific act; an act that has triggered a police investigation and shattered the comfortable, insulated worlds of their families.

UNIQUE AND RIVETING--you won't forget this one for
Revisado: 10-15-13
If you could sum up The Dinner in three words, what would they be?
mind twisting and amusing
What other book might you compare The Dinner to and why?
best thing is that you can't compare it....it is so fresh and unexpected
What does Clive Mantle bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
he has just the right tone and attitude....I don't know if it would have had the same witty irony without him
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
couldn't wait to get back to it
Any additional comments?
The Dinner is perplexing and funny in the most disturbing way.....never a dull passage....nothing like it out there....and performed just right;.

Imagine that your husband wrote you a letter, to be opened after his death. Imagine, too, that the letter contains his deepest, darkest secret - something with the potential to destroy not just the life you built together, but the lives of others as well. Imagine, then, that you stumble across that letter while your husband is still very much alive....
