About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
By reading this summary, you will learn how economics can be applied to all human activities, and thus shed light on many phenomena and problems.
You will also learn that :
- economic principles govern the most intimate areas of your life such as marriage, for example;
- all human behavior is the result of a cost/benefit calculation;
- the cost of something or an action is not only expressed in monetary units, but also in time;
- households are not only consumers, but also producers;
- social relations contribute to the satisfaction and growth of everyone's income.
This collection of Gary S. Becker's most innovative articles, written between 1960 and 1975, demonstrates the many possible applications of economic analysis. This science is not limited to the study of market exchanges: its objective and universal patterns can be applied to apparently non-economic fields. From criminality to the birth rate, every human activity can be translated into economic terms. The traditional economy ignores many social facts, such as marriage, which nevertheless participate in a country's economy. It is time to integrate these phenomena into economic analysis to better understand the interdependencies within society.
