Mr. Duncan does an extraordinary job of explaining, in layman’s terms, the fundamentals that drive the world economy as we know it today and how we got to the point we now collectively find ourselves as a society. I feel more empowered after taking this course, to filter through the daily noise the media feeds us and see what’s really going on. Highly recommended!
