When economists are called “influential,” it usually means they’ve changed the way other economists think. By that standard, Milton Friedman was one of the most influential economists of all time. He revolutionized the way economists think about consumption, about money, about stabilization policy, and about unemployment. He demonstrated the power of committing oneself to a few simple assumptions about human behaviour and then relentlessly pursuing their logical implications. He developed and taught new ways of interpreting data, testing his theories by their ability to explain multiple disparate phenomena. His successes were spectacular and his techniques were widely emulated. It would take several large volumes to do justice to Friedman’s extraordinary contributions to economic theory, economic practice, economic policy, and economic literacy. The few brief chapters that follow will give an overview of what those volumes might contain.Voir livre

We'll also discuss: - Simple signs someone could be lying to you: Body language, verbal indicators, speech patterns, word choice, hand gestures, facial expressions, physiological responses, and much more. - The ways you can question people to trap them in a lie or make their lies blatantly stand out. - The classic 9-step 'Reid Technique' used in most police interrogations so you know not only how to apply it when talking to others, but also how to guard against it and stay out of jail. - The flaws in the polygraph lie detector and how people beat it. - How groups of people trying to deceive you sabotage themselves, and the rest of the group, by unintentionally making common errors that make lies clearly stand out, even when they're standing right next to their friends. People unknowingly reveal much more information than they planned to through their word choice, so we'll also cover the ways you can read between the lines of what was said to learn more than they planned to share. You'll be amazed at what you can learn, and you'll gain significant advantages. You'll be able to start applying what you've learned immediately after you've finished reading this book by using the example procedures, responses, strategies, behaviors, and action steps. It works; and it will work for you. Read this book, apply the information, and see for yourself.Voir livre
