I’ve read a lot of things on Economics, I have a whole degree in Economics! But the below are the ones that I think about the most. Which econ books/writings are your favorites and why?

Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell – I love this book for it’s ability to explain topics in such a simple and easy to digest fashion.

The Mystery of Banking by Murray Rothbard – taught me more monetary theory than my whole university degree.

The Use of Knowledge in Society by Friedrich Hayek – Far too dense to share with normies, but it does such an amazing job of explaining that prices are how we crowd source info on the needs and wants of a society.

Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson – I think about this book nearly everyday. There are so many theories out there as to what makes a country “great” and this book destroyed my ability to take nearly any of them seriously.
