Never read economics, now i'm able to have a conversation on concepts regarding trade, exchange, value.
That being said,it is worth noting that Carl Menger,for many years taught Economics.This is what he taught.This book is divided into eight sections:
1)The General Theory of the Good
2)Economy and Economic Goods
3)The Theory of Value
4)The Theory of Exchange
Catalactics to von Mises.
5)The Theory of Price
6)Use Value and Exchange Value
The average concrete need unit is the general expression for objective use
value.
7)The Theory of the Commodity
8)The Theory of Money
Starting with Menger and carried on with people like von Mises,the Austrians were searching for knowledge beyond economics.They knew economics would pertain to selfish interests.Thus Schmoller's reaction to the Austrians was really no surprise.By the time of Menger's death in 1921,the powers that be in those days were gone.Sadly,this is pretty much all we get from Menger.Sure,he testified in front of the Currency Commission;but he wanted to put more of his academic work in print.This would not be.Nowadays,we would get his lectures on computer or video.He was really that student friendly.

Moreover, the book is of good-quality material, and the delivery was within the time expected.
Every action you take, every decision you make, is part of economics. You might not think that is the case, but Menger is here to remind you that.
All decisions made in the world - small ones by individuals, to large ones by corporations and governments, are all bind by economics. As humans are not rational animals, all decisions made by us, i.e. human action, are to some degree subjective.
This books will introduce you to concepts like the marginal utility of value and the subjective nature of value. It is not mathematically-based, so it is more accessible to non-economists.
After reading this, you will have a whole new perspective on daily life, and every thing you do. You will also start to realize the flawed "economic" talk by politicians left and right.
Highly recommend this book. This book changes lives, even after 149 years.
