Resumen del Editor

Principles of Economics is a university-level textbook in economics that offers a clear and concise exploration of the most important economic concepts.

This book is unapologetically Austrian in its approach. It tackles major economic concepts and topics independently, but in a logical sequence aimed at delivering the listener an understanding of economics at an individual and societal level, and the widespread implications of economics as a topic. The first part of the book introduces the foundational concepts in economics and the Austrian method, the second part of the book introduces the actions that individual humans perform to economize.

After two decades of studying and learning economics at university level, this book represents the knowledge of economics I would have liked to have when I was 17.

Freedom from Fiat

Really enjoyed Safe’s ability to deride fiat with sound, cogent and clear reasoning. Pick this up if you want to learn about real economics

A book everyone should read!

Saifedean is a modern day Mises or Rothbard. This book is an exceptional breakdown of TRUE economics and how the modern world should work and would be improved under a sound economic system

World class as always

Excellent stories and descriptions to explain economics in a logical way for anyone interested regardless of background or expertise

I was already a fan of the Austrian school

I was already a fan of the Austrian school and didn't expect much from this book. I was pleasantly surprised at how much utility I got out of it. The author is brilliant and is a great writer. Because of his clear writing and perfect logic, this will now be one of the books I recommend to people alongside the other greats such as Human Action, Man Economy and State or Economics in One Lesson.

In time this book impact will be comparable to the Bitcoin Standard

Principles of economics has taught me a better Austrian economic theory in 12 hours then all of high school and undergrad degree combined while explaining the mind boggling leaps you must take in current Keynesian theory. I strongly believe this book will become the go to standard for beginning to understand the economic machine we are a part of.

Brilliant work

I love it and think everyone should read/listen to thus book. It is not a simple book but goes quite deep into the working of the economy and human action. Lots of references and history provided to backup claims

This is a must read.

This is one of the most important books of this century. It is absolutely corrective as to the diminishment of critical and rational thinking in our society. It focuses on one of the most important things in life, Economics, which is a subject that is mostly ignored in the education of Americans, and is one of the most coherent arguments against Keynesian economics that I have read. Simply brilliant!

Must read Austrian economics book

Saifedean’s books are great, and principles of economics is no exception. Dissecting economics through the Austrian lens, Saifedean is able to explain economic phenomena in a rational manner, unlike Keynesian nonsense. For anyone looking to delve into Austrian economics and capitalism, this book is for you!

Absolute Masterpiece!

Saifedean had built strong foundations from his previous books The Bitcoin Standard and The Fiat Standar culminating in this sweeping dissection into human economic actions that is driven by human nature, and how every attempt at gaming the nature via money printing or manipulation actually leads to unintended problems. I think because nature works from bottom up, not top down, and any top down economic planning is basically working against nature and by definition will be corrected by nature itself whether they like it or not, whether planned by central committee of communist party or The Fed.

A must read!

This book contains quite a bit of education. I also enjoyed The Bitcoin Standard, and The Fiat Standard. My favorite elements of both are discussed further, also new variables and aspects are introduced and discussed.. The author, Saifedean Ammous,, brings to light topics that will change the way you think about money.
