  Timorous: adj, 1) shy, not bold 2) easily frightened.
  
  Economics: n, social science concerned with the production and consumption of goods and services.
  
  What is the best way to run a country? How long should a person be obliged to work every day? What will the economy look like after Brexit?
  
  In this new take on the Scottish economy, experts Trebeck, Boyd and Kerevan address how our economy can serve us, as opposed to the people serving the economy. They believe that current economic policies are not aligned with what we as people need in these times of rampant inequality and inequitable distribution, advocating an increased focus on the quality of Scotland's economy. Using Scotland as an example for the economic workings of any country, Tackling Timorous Economics shows a better way of how economics could work for us.

  This is a 2-book combo, which has the following titles: 
    
    
  Book 1: This book can help you save time and money! 
    
  When doing taxes, accounting, or income statements, many people are puzzled. It starts with knowing what is what: the definitions. Then, filling out the balance sheets and the numbers, can be an equally complicated task as well. And finally, most people want to get the most out of their business or salary: The highest return, the lowest costs, and the lowest amount of taxes paid. 
    
  All of these concerns are real and they won’t go away on their own. But at least, with a book like this, you can take one step in the right direction. 
    
  This book’s aim is to teach you some of those necessary definitions, to break down what they mean, and to become more familiar with doing general accounting. 
    
  If this is what you’ve been looking for, then I encourage you to pick up the book and start reading or listening to it. 
    
    
    
    
  Book 2: This guide covers a whole range of topics related to doing your accounting tasks and numbers properly. Such topics include: 
    
  Netting 
  Advance payments 
  Liquidation preference 
  Rollover risk 
  Leasebacks 
  Gearing 
  Liens 
  Net interest margins 
  Parallel loans 
  Defeasance 
    
  Many other words and their meanings will also be addressed. If you want to understand those metrics better, this book will be a great tool for you to become acquainted with the terminology and use of these issues.
