The book of the famous - not only in the homeland, but also abroad - Russian economist Konstantin Sonin “Sonin.ru: Lessons of Economics” is a fascinating guide to all areas of economic science. It completely destroys the stereotype that most people have, according to which economics is a chicanery that has little in common with people’s real lives, dry formulas and tortured bespectacled people. It turns out that economists can help us understand why a goalkeeper throws himself into the wrong corner during a penalty kick; how the war between England and France led to the emergence of port wine; is “Solomon’s decision” really so wise; Why build a gas pipeline if there is no gas for it anyway. Having become acquainted with the book “Sonin.ru”, the reader will discover that economists are not always bores with their head in the clouds, but, on the contrary, cheerful people whose professional interest concerns everything that happens around them.
