Writing this introduction is a labor of love for me. You know how
women sometimes say to each other “This dress is you! ” Well,
this book is me! This was the first book on economics that just jumped
out and grabbed me. I had read a few before, but they were boring.
Very boring. Did I mention boring? In sharp contrast, Economics in One
Lesson grabbed me by the neck and never ever let me go. I first read it
in 1963.
