Krugman: Economics

Despite my funding situation being somewhat dire with regards to my LSE Masters at the moment, [1] I saw this on sale for £25 and thought what the hell. Its an investment.

I’m a quick learner but effectively a beginner and it sounds like this book is perfect for me from what I’ve read.

Anyone read it? Any good?

[1] Apparently LSE are not going to provide any funding so I am going to get into even more debt and probably become an escort (watch out for boydujour.wordpress.com!). Dammit, this isn’t as easy as I thought it might be.
