The book is, in fact, written as a partnership between its two authors themselves, a lecturer in philosophy and a lecturer in economics.

Chapter 16: Walk 11 Growth: How We Can Make the World a Better Place for the Gacoteras and the Chowdhurys I enjoyed this book because it introduced me to a topic of global importance under the guise of a fun holiday read. It is very much aimed at the beginner without any formal economics education when it comes to classical economic theory, but covers a lot of concepts that help us understand some of the decisions being made by the policymakers and industry leaders around us. It also begins to arm the reader to critique some of the more dubious ideologies and approaches demonstrated by people in power.

Though I am not a dog person, I did find the format fun -- each basic microecon or macroecon lesson is framed as a walk on which she's taking her dog Monty to converse about these topics. Often Monty's input is a minor joke about food or bones, or just asking her to define a jargon term, but occasionally he gets off some edgy lines, e.g., "being laughed at by a dachsund is like being called stupid by a boxer" (p. 260) (ooh, snap!)
