"Undercover Economics" Oxford University Press 2006. It sounds surreptitious and clandestine from the very title. Well,it is "Lingonomics" with Gobbledygook!
"Freakonomics" By a professor of Economics at the University of Chicago who adds more zest for fun and joy in learning the compound-complex magnitude of Economics.
"Keys for Economic Understanding" with focus on the factor of labor through training to enhance productivity for economic development. www.Ask.com for reference.
A native of Shanghai is now teaching a short course of Wu dialect with pleasure. www.Dictyon.net
A Priori(cause to effect) Students have studied Mandarin Chinese with facilities of vocabulary and syntax to improve his/her faculty to study Wu dialect.
A Posteriori:(effect to cause) Easier understanding of Wu is attributable to prior knowledge of Mandarin but mellifluous tones of some peculiar expressions re Wu dialect with Shanghai accent.
My passion may be detected from "Lingonomics" i.e. Chinese language via Mandarin and Wu dialect to challenge visiting guests who would be interested in Economics to communicate with people in China for Expo 2010 in Shanghai.
