Features: This translation series, a six-volume illustrated economics series compiled and published by the world-renowned British Brown Reference Book Group, has been introduced and translated by China Financial and Economic Publishing House for publication. The greatest feature of this series is its accessibility, making economics easy to understand and engaging with its rich illustrations. In this series, the authors connect many seemingly trivial matters using economic concepts, covering everything from how to rationally manage your finances, make wise shopping and investment decisions, to broader topics such as the accumulation and distribution of social wealth, the operation of financial institutions, the development of national politics, and changes in the global economy. With elegant prose, the authors weave these narratives, immersing readers in the essence of economics.
The series is divided into six volumes. The sixth volume, Economic History, traces the fundamental trajectory of human economic development from ancient times to the present and the evolution of economics itself. The remaining five volumes delve deeply into various themes of economics. This series serves as a popular reading material for individuals with secondary education or higher, who are non-economics majors but work in economic-related fields, particularly targeting business managers, government officials, and students.
In a visually engaging and accessible manner, this series condenses the history of human economic development since the dawn of civilization. You can travel through time, step into early agricultural societies to experience the lives of our ancestors, witness the rise of urban economies, observe the dominance of pirate economies, marvel at the development of modern European civilization, and appreciate the wonders of industrialization! You can also gain insight into the intellectual and spiritual essence of generations of great thinkers, economists, and political masters such as Aristotle, Adam Smith, Keynes, and Gorbachev, understand the eras they lived in, and grasp the true meaning of their ideas.
