ABC's of Money and Banking

THE ABC's OF MONEY and BANKING provides an introduction to economics which will demystify the subject and provide the reader with the basics for life as a consumer. The detail approximates that found in most introductory economics textbooks, but avoids technical jargon and theoretical subtleties which make most economics texts difficult to read or teach at the secondary (high school) level. The subject matter includes: how our economy and the market system work, money and its history, the monetary system, the banking system, the Federal Reserve System, goals of monetary policy, need for economic growth, unemployment and its causes, scope of monetary policy/theory, problems and controversies, and recent developments. Also available from the publisher are companion materials that make the textbook a complete teaching kit. These materials include lesson plans, homework exercises, transparency masters, wall charts, answers to the discussion questions at the end of each chapter of the textbook, and a 20-minute video that explains how our monetary system evolved and how it functions today.Pool, John C. is the author of 'ABC's of Money and Banking' with ISBN 9781882505012 and ISBN 1882505018.
