‘A well-written treat…using examples including the Bank of England canteen, The Simpsons and Beanie Babies, the authors encourage us all to understand, and even challenge, what economists do’ – Professor David Spiegelhalter
‘A well-timed attempt to show the public what goes on inside the Bank of England – and familiarise them with some basic economic concepts…punctuated with jaunty anecdotes and neat examples’ – Guardian
‘An entertaining and essential read at a time when understanding how our money, governments and banks interact has never felt more important’ – Laura Whateley
