Not a terrible reading list for non-economists. I'd throw this in along with it to bring it up to date though.

I have my bachelor's in econ and I find that a lot of the courses you'll find online severely oversimplify things. One good option might be to find a recorded university course, and watch the lectures and do the exercises.

Most economics degrees will have two to four courses called principles courses where you learn the qualitative concepts of macro and microeconomics, shifts in S/D curves vs. movement along S/D curves, equilibrium, etc.

After principles courses you learn everything you need to mathematize them. If you already have a strong math background there will likely be a lot of overlap. You'll be free to explore econometrics,comparative statics, diff eq., control theory, game theory, decision theory, and a whole bunch of other cool shit

While you're learning all this math you'll be free to explore the parts of econ theory that interest you beyond the basic micro and macro you learned in your principles. This includes things like trade theory, monetary theory (its a mind fuck), labor economics, industrial organization, supply chain optimization, economic development, etc.

My favorite textbook ever was pic related. Chiang does a really good job of relating the math to the theory, but if you don't have your principles courses down you won't really understand the meaning of the math you're doing. Unfortunately this book costs a fucking fortune last I checked.

I would recommend an econometrics textbook but I have never enjoyed a single one.

Hope this helps

on that note, check this one out too, pricey but worth the buy imo, very holistic

the last chapter on control theory is fucking dank
