Exposing Why the Rich Are Rich, the Poor Are Poor--and Why You Can Never Buy a Decent      Used Car!
The Undercover Economist is for anyone who's wondered why the gap between rich and        poor nations is so great, or why they can't seem to find a decent second-hand car,        or how to outwit Starbucks. This book offers the hidden story behind these and other        questions, as economist Tim Harford ranges from Africa, Asia, Europe, and of course        the United States to reveal how supermarkets, airlines, and coffee chains--to name        just a few--are vacuuming money from our wallets. Harford punctures the myths        surrounding some of today's biggest controversies, including the high cost of        health-care; he reveals why certain environmental laws can put a smile on a        landlord's face; and he explains why some industries can have high profits for        innocent reasons, while in other industries something sinister is going on. Covering        an array of economic concepts including scarce resources, market power, efficiency,        price gouging, market failure, inside information, and game theory, Harford sheds        light on how these forces shape our day-to-day lives, often without our knowing        it.
