Economic forces are everywhere around you. But that doesn't mean you need to passively accept whatever outcome those forces might press upon you. Instead, with these 12 fast-moving and crystal clear lectures, you can learn how to use a small handful of basic nuts-and-bolts principles to turn those same forces to your own advantage.

Requiring no previous economics background, Professor Bartlett presents some of the fundamental principles and concepts that shape the lenses through which economists view the world. He then shows you how to use these simple analytical tools to understand what you see through those lenses. By learning to identify the many varied situations in which economics affects your life and how to wield the tools that can help you make the wisest choices in those situations, you'll enhance not only your understanding of daily life but your own success in living it.

Packed with case studies, helpful strategies, economic insights, and more, this series will equip you with a reliable toolkit for thinking more like an everyday economist and approach the issues in your own life with a more educated, seasoned eye. And after these dozen lectures with Professor Bartlett, things really will look very different. You'll see how basic economic ideas like incentives, risks, rewards, and rationality are not just the province of professional economists, government policymakers, or your local bank's loan officer, but instead lie at the root of nearly every decision you must make in your daily life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

This book is one of the greats. From becoming a millionaire through compound interest to the horrors of purchasing tv warrenties, each chapter zones in on a single gem of wisdom.

Practical and useful

A fantastic guide for knuckle-heads like myself who are puzzled by the descisions made by myself and others. The section on false incentives was very eye opening. Bartlett does an excellent job explaining the math and reasoning behind why we do what we do and why it might not always be the best possible choice.

Great overview & refresher of core economic principles, with practical, easy-to-relate-to examples. Well worth the opportunity cost. :)

Outstanding

I thought this might be boring, but I was wrong. This is stuff that should be mandatory in public education. We would all be better off if we thought like economists. I for one will take this new found knowledge to improve the quality of my life.

Life changing

I tend to subscribe to a more Libertarian/Laissez-faire view of economics. This book is not that but it was very informative and it's nice to have a different prospective from other economists I enjoy.

I enjoyed it.

I haven’t taken an Econ course in years. This was an engaging and entertaining re-introduction to the big ideas of the field.

Great Overview of Economic Principles

I cannot say this for myself, since I am since long a fan of Freakonomics and interested in behavioral economics, but to those who are looking for something that could really change their lives for the best, this is absolutely a must.
Clear, actionable and with the right tempo and digressions.

Potentially life-changing.
