All of Richard Maybury’s Uncle Eric series of books on economics, geopolitics, justice, and history are excellent educational experiences for both children and adults. The books in Uncle Eric’s model of how the world works can be read in any order, and have been written to stand alone. However, to get the most from each one, Mr Maybury suggests the order as they are listed below, and guides have been written to help get the most out of each one.

Mr Maybury plays the part of an economist writing a series of letters to his niece or nephew. Using stories and examples, he gives interesting and clear explanations of topics generally thought to be too difficult for anyone but experts.

If you have been avoiding economics and finance because you thought you couldn’t understand them, let alone explain them to your children, then you will love these books. Recommended for age 14+, however, they could easily be adapted for age 10+ with a bit of help from a parent. Fantastic books!
