Reviews for Economics for Dummies

[Michael Gerity · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The book itself is great. Unfortunately, the audiobook version is woefully incomplete without the diagrams and charts that are constantly referred to throughout the book. The book gives a link to the Wiley site for supplemental materials, but those turn out to be nothing more than quizzes on the material, not the charts and diagrams. I went around and around with Wiley on this, but as things stand today, the audiobook doesn't give you access to those materials, and without them, the audiobook version sorely lacks.

Economics is one of the most important field of science. More than anything else, economy plays a great role in shaping our future. Economics for dummies is a very good book especially for beginners like me.
