<p>I'm going back to school in a week, and want to read a book about Economics out of interest, before heading back to school. Is there any books you would recommend? </p>
<p>*I'm not wanting any of that textbook econ stuff, I've read enough of that stuff.</p>
<p>freakonomics</p>
<p>Basic Economics: A Citizen's Guide to the Economy by Thomas Sowell</p>
<p>Read Basic Econ and Applied Econ already. Good books, but I felt reading both of them was a waste, since it was pretty much the same thing over again.</p>
<p>I like Heilbroner's The Worldly Philosophers.</p>

I'll have to go up tomorrow at borders, and take a look at it. It looks interesting.</p>
<p>As far as freakonomics, I will probably just read the entire book while I'm there, granted I enjoy it, because I hear it's a quick read.</p>
