JinC regulars know about Newmark's Door, NC State University Economics Professor Craig Newmark's blog where there are lots of short, informative and insightful posts spiced with a wit.
Well now Business Week Online has published his undergraduate recommended reading list.
There's one book on it, Price Theory and Applications, Sixth Ed. by Steven Landsburg, that sounds just a little too heavy for me.
On the other hand, there's
Getting Rich in America: Eight Simple Rules for Building a Fortune and a Satisfying Life by Dwight R. Lee and Richard B. McKenzie.Thanks, Craig. That's my kind of book.As the title indicates, this book explains how an average person can get "rich." There are no gimmicks or tricks, just sound advice firmly grounded in empirical and theoretical economics. The authors are leading academic economists.
Take a look at the list, folks, and at Newmark's Door.
