The links below will take you to some excellent resources for economics:

• Free to Choose - Milton Friedman (1912 – 2006) was an American economist, statistician, a recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, and the twentieth century’s most prominent advocate of free markets. Free to Choose was published as text in 1980, and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) telecast a ten-part video series which paralleled the ten chapters of the book. The general format is that of Dr. Friedman visiting and narrating a number of success and failure stories in history, which he attributes to free enterprise or the lack thereof.
• The Commanding Heights: The Battle For The World Economy - This is one of the most interesting programs that I have ever seen - regardless of a person's level of interest in economics. The Commanding Heights Storyline provides a complete netcast of the six-hour television program as originally broadcast via PBS in three, two-hour episodes. The episodes are subdivided into chapters, captioned, and enhanced with additional interactive content not available on television. The series presents global economic history from World War l through 2002.
