Economics can be interesting and useful

For a lot of people economics can be a dry and uninteresting subject but it can be fascinating and practical for building models that can make a difference in living a better life.

Lifehack.org has a reference to a series of articles on economics by Arnold Kling topics "Fifty Essential Topics in Economics" that could be considered a course in economic concepts.

I particularly liked the article on calculations to determine if investing in a time share makes sense - not that I have ever been tempted to do so.

Freakonomics was a good book and the blog has a series of interesting articles too.
