Astoundingly eloquent. Great choices of areas to cover. Understandable to the layperson. Makes you think. For that reason it took me >6 months to finish listening to it. On that note, the narrator also deserves mad props. The book has mostly facts but yes throws some opinions in along the way. As I learn basic economics better I notice my own opinions change. The common sense approach and appeals to “ethics” don't stand up to rigorous analysis. I now intend to read some of his other books, especially ones that are less political and more about practical knowledge like this one.
