Become Fluent in the
Language of Economics
We are all economists—when we work, buy, save, invest, pay
taxes, and vote. It repays us many times over to be good economists.
Economic issues are active in our lives every day. However, when the
subject of economics comes up in conversation or on the news, we can
find ourselves longing for a more sophisticated understanding of the
fundamentals of economics.
Taught by Professor Timothy Taylor—the Managing Editor of the
Journal of Economic Perspectives, a quarterly academic journal published
by the American Economic Association—Economics, 3rd Edition
enables you to master the basis of economics. Throughout this
36-lecture course, you’ll learn about financial issues that affect you and
the nation every day—interest rates, unemployment, personal investing,
globalization, and many more—with a greater level of knowledge and
sophistication.
The bottom line: become fluent in the language of economics.
