PRAISE FOR ECONOMIX
��aving never taken economics in college, I find the world of high finance needlessly complicated and confusing. Thankfully Michael Goodwin saw the need for a basic primary on how the economy currently works and how we got here. A text like this would certainly help high school and college students gain their first taste of financial literacy and it comes recommended for the rest of us.����omicMix.com
��t�� simply phenomenal. You could read ten books on the subject and not glean as much information.��BR>��David Bach founder of FinishRich Media; author of nine New York Times bestsellers, including Debt Free for Life and The Automatic Millionaire
��oodwin has done the seemingly impossible��e has made economics comprehensible and funny.��BR>
��Joel Bakan, author of The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power
��n amazing lesson in true-world economics! Delightfully presented, powerful, insightful, and important information! What a fun way to fathom a deep and often dark subject!��BR>
��John Perkins, author of Hoodwinked and the New York Times bestseller Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
��mart, insightful, clear, and as close to the truth as economics can get. The bonus: Who would have guessed that economics could be fun, and��ere's the joy��eally accessible? Goodwin roots us in history and fills us with common sense understanding. As he puts it early on, economics seems horribly complicated mostly because we're looking at it all at once. Broken down into its component pieces, it's relatively easy to understand. And a good understanding of economics is critical to maneuvering in the world today. If I were compiling a list of the 100 most important books you can read in a lifetime, this would be on it.��BR>
��B>Stephen Petranek, editor-in-chief, Weider History magazines, former editor-in-chief of Discover magazine
��hrough a potent mix of comics and punchy, concise, accessible prose, Goodwin takes us on a provocative, exhaustively researched, and exceedingly engaging trip through our history and present day, creating an alternately hilarious and scary picture of where we are today as an economy��and what it all means. More than that, Goodwin makes the arcane, understandable. If your mind either spins or slumbers at the thought of economics, read Goodwin's Economix and all will become clear.

��I>Economix is a lively, cheerfully opinionated romp through the historical and intellectual foundations of our current economy and our current economic problems. Goodwin has a knack for distilling complex ideas and events in ways that invite the reader to follow the big picture without losing track of what actually happened. Any reader wonderin
