　　"Economics is haunted by more fallacies than any other study

known to man." -- Henry Hazlitt, Economics in One Lesson

(1946)

Every day economic claims are used by the media or in

conversation to *** social and political positi***. Those on

the left tend to distrust economists, seeing them as friends of the

right. There is something to this, since professional economists

are almost all keen ***ers of the free market. Yet while

facti*** on the right naturally embrace economists, they also tend

to overestimate the effect of their *** on free-market

policies. The result is widespread confusion. In fact, virtually

all commonly held beliefs about economics--whether espoused by

political activists, politicians, journalists or taxpayers--are

just plain wrong.

Professor Joseph Heath wants to raise our economic li***cy

and empower us with new ideas. In Economics Without

Illusi***, he draws on everyday examples to skewer the six

favourite economic fallacies of the right, followed by impaling the

six favourite fallacies of the left. Heath leaves no sacred cows

untipped as he breaks down complex arguments and shows how the

world really works. The popularity of such books as Freakonomics

and Predictably Irrational ***s that people want a better

understanding of the financial forces that affect them.

Highly readable, cogently argued and certain to raise ire along all

points of the socio-political spectrum, Economics Without

Illusi*** offers readers the economic li***cy they need to

genuinely understand and critique the pros and c*** of

capitalism.
