False economy : A surprising economic history of the world

---

In False Economy, Alan Beattie weaves together the economic choices, political choices, economic history, and human stories, that determine whether governments and countries remain rich or poor.

False Economy is a lively and lucid book that engagingly and thought-provokingly examines macroeconomics, economic topics, and the fault lines and successes that can make or break a culture or induce a global depression. Along the way, readers will discover why Africa doesn't grow cocaine, why our asparagus comes from Peru, why our keyboard spells QWERTY, and why giant pandas are living on borrowed time.
Contents:
1. Making choices : Why did Argentina succed and the united states stall?
2. Cities : Why didn't Washington, D.C
3. Trade : Why does EGYPT import half its staple food?
4. Natural resources
5. Religion, etc.
