Chronicling the lives of four close friends-Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer-the show highlights human behavior at its best and its worst.The major characters paint themselves as some of the most self-interested individuals in all of popular culture, and are faced with dilemmas that force them to make decisions.

These principles are then applied to other real-world situations, arming readers with the tools needed to make better economic decisions.Written in a light-hearted and conversational style, this book is a must-read for fans of Seinfeld and anyone who wants to learn something from "the show about nothing." It is an ideal supplement for all economics classes |
