Our state education standards are extremely heavy on economics, so I do a lot with the topic in teacher trainings and so on. I have also enjoyed quite a few pop econ books recently -- Freakonomics, The World is Flat, Candyfreak, The Omnivore's Dilemma. But when I recently had to read through an actual econ textbook, I was amazed by how stultifyingly boring it was.
Maybe the textbooks are the foes of education in economics.
