Publisher Comments:

You're no idiot, of course. You know expansion is good and recession is bad. But what forces lead to one or the other? It's not always easy to grip on the various influencing factors, let alone the many theories on how they work.

Don't lapse into depression! The Complete Idiot's Guide to Economics will show you exaclty how the markets function and how we as consumers contribute to a healthy economy.

Synopsis:

- More accessible than textbooks--and free of political bias- Timely--economics are at the forefront of both national and international news- Appeals to general readers and students, managers and analytical staff

Synopsis:

This text begins by showing in everyday terms how markets work - the dynamics of supply and demand and prices. It then introduces the key players in the economy - consumers, business and government - and uses the behaviour of these groups to illustrate the basic theories and ideas.

Synopsis:

Local or global, economic issues are on the public's mind, but making sense of supply and demand isn't so simple. This book explains in everyday terms how markets work. It also introduces the key players and uses their behavior to illustrate basic theories and ideas.
