Public Choice: An Introduction to the New Political Economy

This book is definitely an eye-opener to those of us who are curious about how the economy really works. Although some of the language in the book can get confusing, the concepts are easy to understand. David Johnson uses great examples to explain these concepts and will really make the reader understand how the political economy affects his or her life. I especially found Johnson's discussions on the economics of elections/voting very interesting. Although the book is out of print, it would be a good idea to get your hands on a copy. The only way to improve this book would be to have the author, David Johnson, read it in an audio version. He's a great lecturer!
