Economics for Real People: An Introduction to the Austrian School

Gene Callahan, Ludwig von Mises Institute, 2004-06 Book description: The second edition of the fun and fascinating guide to the main ideas of the Austrian School of economics, written in sparkling prose especially for the non-economist. Gene Callahan shows that good economics isn't about government planning or statistical models. It's about human beings and the choices they make in the real world. This may be the most important book of its kind since Hazlitt's Economics in One Lesson. Though written for the beginner, it has been justly praised by scholars too, including Israel Kirzner, Walter Block, and Peter Boettke.

After considering what we already have in our library and what our demands are at present, we've concluded not to summarize your suggestion. Sometimes we have to turn down even very good recommendations because the titles don't quite fit into any of our library's categories, because the topic has been extensively covered by other titles already, because the suggested content is too old (we focus on new releases), or because we are unable to summarize this content due to legal restrictions. Please understand that we can’t reply to every suggestion individually, but rest assured that we examine them all diligently.
