Economic Facts and Fallacies, 2nd Edition by Thomas Sowell is an accessible economics book for readers who want to understand how popular economic beliefs can be tested against evidence. Sowell examines economic myths, income inequality, urban economics, gender differences, academia, race and Third World economic issues, showing why persuasive claims are not always supported by facts.
Rather than requiring advanced economics knowledge, the book introduces readers to ways of questioning assumptions, interpreting statistics and thinking more carefully about economic and social policies. The second edition includes chapters on the power of fallacies, urban issues, male-female economic differences, academic institutions, income, race and developing countries.
It is suitable for students, entrepreneurs, professionals, economists, policymakers and curious readers interested in economics and public policy.
