Economic Facts and Fallacies, 2nd edition, is a nonfiction economics book by Thomas Sowell that examines how common beliefs about markets, inequality, housing, trade, and public policy often rest on flawed reasoning. Written for general readers rather than specialists, it does not try to build an academic theory of economics. Instead, it focuses on everyday arguments and public debates where emotions, slogans, and incomplete evidence tend to distort judgment. Sowell’s purpose is to show how economic thinking becomes clearer when people ask basic questions about incentives, trade-offs, and unintended consequences. The book is especially concerned with recurring errors such as assuming every exchange has a winner and a loser, mistaking what is true for one group or one city as true for everyone, and treating correlation as causation. By using statistics, historical examples, and plain language, Sowell argues that many policy failures begin with plausible but misleading assumptions.
