Book Log 2006 #40: The Undercover Economist by Tim Harford
As someone who has never quite understood economics (outside of the basics), the idea of this book appealed to me. It would explain everyday events in economic terms, bolstering my comprehension of the theory while giving me a new way to look at things like traffic jams and the price of coffee.
Well, it didn't work. As much as it was taking a layman's approach, it's still a book about economics. I didn't finish it.
