Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt

Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt

Hazlitt's whole lesson fits in one sentence: the bad economist sees only the immediate effect on one group, while the good economist traces the longer effects on everyone. The rest of the book applies that single test to two dozen popular policies.

He starts with the broken window — the shopkeeper whose smashed glass supposedly creates work for the glazier — and then runs the same logic through tariffs, price controls, minimum wages, make-work schemes, rent control and government credit, showing each time what was not built because the money went elsewhere.

First published in 1946 and never out of print. The clearest short introduction to free-market economics ever written.
