@liloberto @BevansAdvocate Thank you!

@Anthro852 @BevansAdvocate That one below. But if you’re starting in economics get this one: amazon.com/Principles-Eco…

If you want to learn Economics, don't enroll in any course. Just read this book. I'm not kidding. It will seriously teach you more than anything else can. Thread:

@liloberto @BevansAdvocate Just curious, which book is this?

@BevansAdvocate They’re not mutually exclusive. It is a good book but doesn’t replace a basic economic course.
