Inflation Without the Misery

This book does, in plain English, with real numbers and real history.

✔️ How it's measured: the national shopping basket behind the CPI

✔️ The three main reasons prices rise

✔️ Why central banks aim for about 2%, not zero, on purpose

✔️ Real vs nominal: why a raise below inflation is a pay cut, and what inflation does to cash

✔️ Who wins and who loses, plus what happened in Weimar Germany and Zimbabwe when prices went wild
