Are there any good books on economics?

[Anonymous No.13476421]

I’m not really looking for a textbook just something that would give me useful insight I couldn’t otherwise come up with myself. I’ve read thinking fast and slow and misbehaving. And despite a few things most of the content seems obvious or relatively trivial. I’ve been thinking about reading a book on game theory, but thats more textbook territory.

I plan on reading Contending Economic Theories by Richard Wolff. Might be a good start since the pdf can be found online for free.

That looks pretty interesting. One thing that throws me off is 130 pages are dedicated to Marxism which makes me think this guy is a shill.

So can "Mein Kampf", ist that next on your reading list?

Also PDFs are meant to be printed, if you want to actually read on a digital device I suggest you use a format like epub, which allows dynamic styling.
