Book: Rethinking Economics

Rethinking Economics

Unfortunately, pupils at A-level get introduced to a very narrow perspective on not only what Economics is about but also the views held by economists.

This book provides an accessible introduction to nine different approaches to economics: from feminist to ecological and Marxist to behavioural. Each chapter is written by a leading expert in the field described and is intended to stand on its own as well as providing an ambitious survey that seeks to highlight the true diversity of economic thought.

I highly recommend this book to those who wish to think originally, beyond an A-level syllabus.

Rethinking Economics: An Introduction to Pluralist Economics is a great entry-level economics textbook for lecturers looking to introduce students to the broader range of ideas explored within the economics profession. It is also appropriate and accessible for people outside of academia who are interested in economics and economic theory.
