Skimming three chapters reveals no sign that the author of the above book knows first-year undergraduate economics, why the current economy is arranged the way it is, or what policy tradeoffs would be involved in their hopeful ideas. May I recommend to you the standard introductory text Intermediate Microeconomics by Hal Varian, which I recently gave to a friend of mine?

One more for you, something I find rational: http://www.generation-online.org/p/fp_bifo5.htm http://www.generation-online.org/p/fp_bifo5.htm Edit: After reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_one_price http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_one_price I think I'll have to reflect on arbitrage in the system, but it's cool to see that it has a stabilizing effect.
