Economics for Everyone: Book Launch

Join Jim Stanford, economist for Unifor and panelist for CBC The National's “Bottom Line”, as we launch the brand new second edition of his book: Economics for Everyone. Jim Stanford

Most people think economics is a dull, technical subject – filled with math, graphs, and complicated financial concepts. In other words, it’s a subject best left to the “experts.” But in fact, economics is something we all experience, every day, in our own lives. And it turns out that our economy depends more on concrete, “mundane” forces like work, family, and care, than on the frenetic paper chase of financial markets.

The event will feature a talk by Jim Stanford, Q&A, reception, and book-signing. The book will be available for sale for $25, all proceeds go to the CCPA. It can also be ordered on-line through the CCPA here.
