"A straightforward, accessible, and often hilarious overview of our financial and economic systems." —Publishers Weekly
Man vs. Markets by Paddy Hirsch of NPR's Marketplace is economics explained, pure and simple, for the layperson who wouldn't know a bond from an option and who believes that a "future" is when we'll all have flying cars. Here is an illuminating, insightful, and wonderfully witty journey of discovery through the often-confusing financial markets, offering clear, relatable—but never simplistic—explanations and definitions of the system's various instruments. Man vs. Markets is a must-read handbook for everyday investors, students of finance and economics, and everyone who wants to understand what they're reading in the business section.
"An excellent primer for anyone who needs to know how markets really work and why they sometimes don't." —Robert Reich, former US Secretary of Labor and author of Saving Capitalism
