Query: Excellent Book For Beginners and Lovers of Capitalism

Thomas Sowell's Basic Economics is a great book for those who want to understand how capitalism works. It should be required reading for economic students as well as for the lay person. Economics affects us all, whether we want it to or not. Sowell puts economics in layman's language, using a lot of examples that people can relate to. For example, he argues why rent control is bad for everyone. Sowell uses New York City as an example, giving reasons why the rent is so high and why there are many abandoned buildings. No way am I an economics expert, but Sowell has helped me to understand the subject. If more people read it, I don't think we'd have so many regulations, government bureaucracy, etc. It should be a must read!
