Summary

In "Harmonies of Political Economy," Frédéric Bastiat brilliantly interweaves economic theory with an accessible literary style, presenting a compelling argument for the principles of free market economics. Written during the mid-19th century, the book reflects the philosophical underpinnings of classical liberalism and provides insightful critiques of protectionism and state intervention. Bastiat famously employs wit and parables to elucidate complex economic concepts, making this work not only informative but also engaging for readers, regardless of their prior knowledge of economics. Frédéric Bastiat was a French political economist, influential in the development of free market thought and a prominent critic of socialism. His experiences as a businessman and his engagement in political activism during tumultuous times in France profoundly shaped his views. Bastiat's passion for liberty and his advocacy for economic clarity stand at the forefront of his writings, as he sought to reveal the underlying truths of economic phenomena amid the chaos of political rhetoric. Recommended for scholars, students, and anyone with an interest in economics, "Harmonies of Political Economy" serves as a foundational text in understanding the dynamics of free markets. Its timeless messages resonate today, urging readers to appreciate the intricate balance between liberty and economic prosperity.

    Do you like stories about gods and spirits, giants and monsters, damsels in distress, and clever heroes? 
    All of these can be found in African myth and folklore, which have a vast and varied tapestry of stories from hundreds of cultures, each with its own traditions and values.  
    Sometimes the heroes of these stories are divine beings who come down from heaven to create the world we live in, but sometimes human beings and animals themselves are the ones who see to it that the sun, moon, and stars are put into their proper places.  
    Sometimes the heroes are hapless men who get into more trouble than they can handle, while others find a way out of their predicament by getting help from unlikely sources. Sometimes the heroines find themselves in mortal peril because they are not paying attention and have to be rescued by someone else, while others are forced into their predicaments by external forces that require them to be saved or save themselves.  
    However, whatever the danger and whomever the hero is, all of these stories have the ability to captivate our imaginations and keep us on the edge of our seats. 
    Here are just a few of the amazing characters you will meet in this book:a princess who gets eaten by a monster and then goes on to marry a mysterious prince who is not all he seems to bea young woman who is sacrificed to end a drought but rescued by the young man who loves her dearlya blacksmith who is given an impossible task, and the madman who helps solve the problemthe children who put the sun into the skythe fanged deer whose eyes turned into the starsthe clever lad who saves his uncle from death and outsmarts every enemy he comes across
