Nic Compton / Tweetonomics

Product Description

Everything you need to know about economics in 140 characters or less. We hear a lot about economics in the news these days, but how much do we really understand? All too often experts assume their audience knows as much about the subject as they do. For instance, what is a balance of trade deficit? Why do interest rates affect the amount of cash in circulation? Who sets interest rates? Tweetonomics pecks a hole in the jargon and explains the 140 most important economic terms and concepts in 20 tweets or less. By limiting the explanations to 140-character tweets, there's no chance of them getting unnecessarily complicated. Tweetonomics uses plain English and flies straight to the point. The book is divided into nine chapters, covering such important issues as globalisation, boom & bust, overseas development, green economics and the everyday workings of national economies. It also gives an overview of the big economic ideas of the past 150 years and the people who shaped them.
