Synopsis
DEAR UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST collects Tim Harford's favorite Financial Times "Undercover Economist" columns from 2003 to 2008. His topics range far from the expected economic issues, and show again and again that economics can provide insight into all aspects of life. Filled with humor and counter-intuitive thinking, Harford's articles include discussions of the best strategies for eating at buffets, how to fool wine snobs, how to explain the credit crunch to your children, and the costs and benefits of faking orgasms.
