The economics of uncertainty

CD Audiobook

The economics of uncertainty / Professor Connel Fullenkamp (Duke University).

Fullenkamp, Connel, (author,, speaker.). Teaching Company, (production company.).

Summary:

"Economies are deeply complex systems. The global marketplace--even national, state and local economies--involve many economic actors behaving in rational and irrational ways, sustaining a dizzying array of interconnected activity. Because of the number of participants involved in this global exchange, the unpredictability of their actions, and the sheer variety of possible actions, some degree of economic uncertainty is inevitable. In 24 practical and empowering half-hour lectures, The Economics of Uncertainty takes the mystery and dread out of uncertainty, giving you the tools to deal with risk in every phase of your life. Your guide is Professor Connel Fullenkamp, an acclaimed economist and award-winning teacher at Duke University, where he is Professor of the Practice and Director of Undergraduate Studies in Duke's nationally ranked Economics Department."--Provided from distributor's website.
