Product Description
by Brian Shellabarger (Author)
Making Sense Out of Dollars is designed to help the average American understand the basic principles of economics that make this country work. Most people don't have the patience or the time to sit through the complex theoretical textbook approach that's traditionally used to teach economics. Topics covered include the stock market, inflation, the U.S. Dollar, the national debt, the federal reserve, and more. Even if you think you already know these concepts, you'll find additional insights by reading these pages. The book can be read and understood in an evening and uses a combination of basic diagrams and real-world, simplistic examples to help make complex topics easy to understand. Students, parents, and anyone else with a desire to understand the impact of the evening headlines will benefit from this book.
