 | Demystifying Economics by Allen W. Smith DEMYSTIFYING ECONOMICS, one of the most readable & versatile books ever published in the field of economics, makes economics accessible to almost everyone. It provides a survey of the field of economics written in simple language with the use of concrete examples that relate economics to ordinary daily life. It also explains how America added $4 trillion to the national debt in just 15 years, & documents the redistribution of income from the lowest-income, 80 percent of the population, to the highest-income, 20 percent during the 1980s. The author, who has been teaching introductory economics to college students for 28 years, has devoted much of his adult life to the fight against economic illiteracy. His first book, UNDERSTANDING INFLATION & UNEMPLOYMENT, became an alternate selection of Fortune Book Club when it was published in 1976. His high school textbook, UNDERSTANDING ECONOMICS, which was published by Random House in 1986, was adopted by more than 600 schools in 48 states. AUTHOR: Allen W.
