description: There are two general types of Economic study. Nations and states are the concern of Macro-economics. Individual people are the concern of Micro-economics. This book is the best, most straight-forward presentation of micro-economics, in a way that matters to each of us. There's a difference between independence and selfishness. With the Economics as if People Mattered, consider what Schumacher's book has to say for the way we live today.
