Economics in Ten Short Lessons

Economics Policy Journal reports:
The great Austrian School economist Murray Rothbard not only advanced Austrian school economic theory and the history of economic thought, but he was also very talented at writing about economics in a fashion that an intelligent member of the general public could understand. Below are 10 short essays written for the general public by Rothbard that get to the core of economics and commonly held myths about economics. If you want to learn about economics, these essays are a great start.
If you read all ten essays: you'll know more about economics than virtually all journalists, and many economists. You'll probably learn more from readings these essays than going to college.
