I meant that as a joke, those are just the textbooks I read in college. I think they were published by Pearson though, if you really want to devote your time to reading economics textbooks.

Don't be afraid of coursera basic economic courses or something similar. Econ books are great n all, but sometimes a visual aspect is needed.
