About the book
Extra-terrestrial Economics is a graphic novel oriented towards the principles of economics. I realised that interest in economics isn’t fostered until high school – losing out on valuable years already. Therefore, this book is designed in a comic format to engage readers of all ages while thoroughly communicating core economic principles.
The story begins with an Alien coming on earth and meeting Jamal. Jamal, who has a great love for Economics (modestly based on a certain someone), explains to his interplanetary peer the basic Economics concepts, digestibly for young students. These casual conversations between an Alien and a schoolboy delve into broad topics like Scarcity, Choices, Demand & Supply.
Join their extra-terrestrial escapade to learn Economics.
