【實用書籍app】How Markets Fail (by John Cassidy)|最夯免費app-gigacircle

HOW MARKETS FAIL by John Cassidy (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).For decades, economists have developed elegant theories of how markets work. But what about when markets don’t work? Cassidy shows how an unregulated free market can produce disastrous unintended consequences. Combining on-the-ground reporting, clear explanations of esoteric economic theories, and even a little crystal-ball gazing, Cassidy warns that in today’s economic crisis, conforming to outdated theories is not just misguided—it’s downright dangerous. How Markets Fail offers a new, enlightening way to understand the force of the irrational in our volatile global economy.Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing.
