About this book

The novel "Edible Economics: A Hungry Economist Explains the World" by Ha-Joon Chang is a unique work of literature that combines tales about food from around the globe with economic concepts. Chang investigates economic theory by examining the various histories of well-known foods.

The book offers a smorgasbord of audacious concepts regarding immigration, globalization, automation, austerity, and even why orange carrots are not necessary. It illustrates how knowing the economy is like knowing a recipe: if we have a basic understanding of it, we can modify and enhance it to better comprehend our reality.

About the author

Ha-Joon Chang

Chang is a South Korean economist who taught at Cambridge for decades and now works at SOAS in London, and his argument stays consistent: the rich countries that lecture developing ones about free trade all used protection and state direction to get rich in the first place. Kicking Away the Ladder makes that case historically.
