This book with its unconventional and appealing take on the serious subject of economics is the first of its kind in the Indian context. It gives the reader a peek into economic rationale behind human behavior and socio-economic phenomena, imputes numerical values to them, and helps him/her make ˜economic sense` out of them. It delves into common but less talked about issues like: economics of a residential complex, flyover construction, organized beggary and bribery, places of worship, festivals, and godmen; working of public and pvt. sector banks; consumer psychology and economic laws; publicity games, etc. The book hence gives us a better understanding of the world around us and also expands the limits to which Economics can work. The book covers: 4 Visiting the lesser known economies 4 Try investing your money¦we`ll get you anyway 4 Economics and mind games 4 Corporate quirks 4 Human craving to be known 4 Importance of knowing the price 4 Getting professional 4 Oddness around us 4 Why we will survive.
