Dear students: we've focused on measuring economic growth and quality of life last week and will do more of that in Week 4. Here are some resources for you - not required reading per se but useful in a general sense or maybe for a paper you're writing in another class.
You can explore the CIA Factbook to get a quick profile (economic, political, geographic, and so forth) of any country in the world. Wikipedia, perhaps my Favorite Thing Ever, has a detailed discussion of GDP and the different ways it's measured. You can also click on the links on that page for sort-able lists of countries by different GDP measures.
