Lecture Notes and Short Texts for Economics

A site explaining economics in plain English for the benefit of young people or the general public who find economic terminology confusing. The content is organised around questions such as "Why can't the government print more money?", "Why do footballers earn more than nurses?", or "Why do central banks adjust interest rates?". The text includes quizzes and other interactives so that readers are prompted to test their understanding. The site explains concepts from first principles, without assuming any prior economics knowledge, and has links to sources and further reading/watching.
