This little book was written to accomplish something big: economic literacy. It is intentionally kept very short to be inviting rather than intimidating. You will gain life-changing understanding of how the economy works in practically no time. Per Bylund will make you excited about what economics has to offer. Because economic literacy is mind-opening. Sound economic reasoning is an enormously powerful tool for understanding both the economy and society. Economic literacy uncovers what is going on under the surface and why things work out as they do. There is no magic to it. In fact, economic literacy is necessary to properly understand the world. Short, direct, axiomatically unassailable, and devastating to the mythology of modern economics. This book not only promote Mises' views, but refutes and attacks the tragicomic orthodoxy of today’s economics mainstream.

"He was the most important scholar of privacy since Louis Brandeis."—Jeffrey Rosen In defining privacy as “the claim of individuals…to determine for themselves when, how and to what extent information about them is communicated,” Alan Westin’s 1967 classic Privacy and Freedom laid the philosophical groundwork for the current debates about technology and personal freedom, and is considered a foundational text in the field of privacy law. By arguing that citizens retained control over how their personal data was used, Westin redefined privacy as an individual freedom, taking Justice Louis Brandeis’ 19th century definition of privacy as a legal right and expanding it for use in modern times. Westin’s ideas transformed the meaning of privacy, leading to a spate of privacy laws in the 1970s, as well as prefiguring the arguments over privacy that have come to dominate the internet era. This all new edition of Privacy and Freedom features an introduction by Daniel J. Solove, John Marshall Harlan Research Professor of Law at the George Washington University Law School.

The story of the idealists, technologists, and opportunists fighting to bring cryptocurrency to the masses. In their short history, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have gone through booms, busts, and internecine wars, recently reaching a market valuation of more than $2 trillion. The central promise of crypto endures—vast fortunes made from decentralized networks not controlled by any single entity and not yet regulated by many governments. The recent growth of crypto would have been all but impossible if not for a brilliant young man named Vitalik Buterin and his creation: Ethereum. In this book, Laura Shin takes readers inside the founding of this novel cryptocurrency network, which enabled users to launch their own new coins, thus creating a new crypto fever. She introduces readers to larger-than-life characters like Buterin, the Web3 wunderkind; his short-lived CEO, Charles Hoskinson; and Joe Lubin, a former Goldman Sachs VP who became one of crypto’s most well-known billionaires. Sparks fly as these outsized personalities fight for their piece of a seemingly limitless new business opportunity. This fascinating book shows the crypto market for what it really is: a deeply personal struggle to influence the coming revolution in money, culture, and power.

In the beginning, there was Menger. It was his Principles of Economics that reformulated — and really rescued — economic science from the theoretical errors of the old classical school.Menger set out to elucidate the precise nature of economic value, and to root economics firmly in the real-world actions of individual human beings. In Principles of Economics, he advances the theory that the marginal utility of goods is the source of their value, rather than the labor inputs that went into making them. The implication of this theory is that the individual mind is the source of economic value — a point that touched off the marginalist revolution and started a departure from the flawed classical view of economics.For this reason, Carl Menger (1840–1921) is considered to be the founder of the Austrian School of economics. Principles of Economics is the book that Ludwig von Mises said turned him into a real economist. What's striking is how, nearly a century and a half later, the book still retains the incredible power of both its prose and its relentless logic.The Mises Institute's new edition features a new foreword by Peter G. Klein, which summarizes Menger's contribution and places him in the history of ideas. Klein also explains Menger's continued relevance in present times. F.A. Hayek contributes the introduction.Economics students still say that it is the best introduction to economic logic ever written. The book also deserves the status of a seminal contribution to science in general. Truly, no one can claim to be well read in economics without having mastered Menger's argument.To search for Mises Institute titles, enter a keyword and LvMI (short for Ludwig von Mises Institute); e.g., Depression LvMI

Economist Bryan Caplan makes a bold case for unrestricted immigration in this fact-filled graphic nonfiction. American policy-makers have long been locked in a heated battle over whether, how many, and what kind of immigrants to allow to live and work in the country. Those in favor of welcoming more immigrants often cite humanitarian reasons, while those in favor of more restrictive laws argue the need to protect native citizens. But economist Bryan Caplan adds a new, compelling perspective to the immigration debate: He argues that opening all borders could eliminate absolute poverty worldwide and usher in a booming worldwide economy―greatly benefiting humanity. With a clear and conversational tone, exhaustive research, and vibrant illustrations by Zach Weinersmith, Open Borders makes the case for unrestricted immigration easy to follow and hard to deny.

EL LIBRO DE GRAFOMOTRICIDAD QUE CONVIERTE CADA TRAZO EN UNA PEQUEÑA MISIÓN (3-5 AÑOS) Sabes que trazar líneas no es solo dibujar: es la base de la motricidad fina, la coordinación ojo-mano y la futura escritura. El reto está en conseguir que un niño de 3 a 5 años quiera repetir trazos sin aburrirse. Por eso, en este libro ningún trazo se hace porque sí. Paso 1: Traza líneas con sentido y en la dirección correcta Aquí cada línea tiene una misión: una recta hace despegar un cohete, una curva ayuda a saltar a una rana y una onda dibuja el vuelo de una mariposa. Cuando entienden el “para qué”, los peques se implican más y siguen el recorrido con más facilidad. Además, cada trazo incluye pauta y flechas, para reforzar la direccionalidad que usarán más adelante al escribir. La dificultad avanza en 6 niveles muy graduales, casi sin que el niño note el cambio. Así gana confianza, evita frustrarse y mejora el control del lápiz paso a paso. Paso 2: Repasa y colorea como un artista Los niños repasan trazos en dibujos de casas, trenes y simpáticos animales, y después los colorean. Una forma amena de seguir fortaleciendo la motricidad fina mientras desarrollan la creatividad. Ellos se divierten; su mano se entrena. Paso 3: Laberintos inspirados en cuentos clásicos ¿Alcanzará Alicia al conejo blanco? ¿Llegará Blancanieves a la casa de los enanitos? Estos laberintos ayudan a repasar los tipos de línea e incorporan un reto extra: planificar el recorrido. Así trabajan la orientación espacial, la atención y el razonamiento lógico mientras disfrutan de personajes que ya conocen. REGALA UN LIBRO PENSADO PARA LA FORMA EN QUE APRENDEN LOS NIÑOS DE 3 A 5 AÑOS. TU HIJO VERÁ MISIONES DIVERTIDAS. TÚ VERÁS CÓMO, TRAZO A TRAZO, GANA SEGURIDAD EN EL CONTROL DEL LÁPIZ.
