Economics: A History of Economics (DK Essential Histories) [9798217494323]

Overview

Take a fascinating trip through more than 3,000 years of groundbreaking ideas, discoveries, and disruptions that have shaped the modern global economy.

Economics unpacks the key principles, theories, people, and events that have transformed trade, labor, money, and power through history and across the world. From the first marketplaces and Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” to the ideas of Karl Marx, Keynesian revolutions, and today’s digital disruptors, it tells the story of how economic thinking has evolved – and the reasons why it matters now more than ever.

Written and authenticated by a panel of subject experts and specialized historians, and packed with eye-catching photography, bold graphic explanations of key concepts, and thought-provoking quotes, the book makes complex ideas easy to grasp – from what inflation is, and what drives it, to the causes of market crashes and how tariffs work.

In a world in which economics is an increasingly important and relevant subject, Economics offers a timely reflection on its past, its present, and its potential future.
