<P>This book illustrates important economic concepts that every traveler and world citizen should understand, with a focus on the interplay between travel and economics. The author uses our shared travel experiences to illustrate exactly how economic thinking supplies such a powerful framework for understanding the world around us. More than simply explaining economics through travel experiences, this book enables adventurers who desperately want to avoid being tourists—i.e., people who travel to see what they know is there—to become explorers: those who learn each and every day from what they witness.</P>
