{"product_id":"simply-put-a-study-in-economics-9781453830918","title":"Simply Put: A Study in Economics","description":"This large print edition makes learning economics even easier! It can be used as a stand-alone textbook, but there is also a Teacher Key available if you want answers to the Review Questions (and more). This book was originally written as an alternative to high school economic textbooks (particularly for homeschoolers), though it has also been enjoyed by adults looking for a refresher course. Warning, it is clearly written by a fiscal conservative! Economics is the study of the choices we make with scare resources. My favorite economics book is Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell. In his book, Sowell asks the very important question, \"Do we live in an 'Era of Scarcity' or an 'Era of Abundance'?\" While here in the United States we live in an area that has more abundance than most of the rest of the world, and an era that has more abundance than any before us, we still live with \"scarcities\". There is not enough of anything to please everyone. Choices must always be made as to how to use the resources available. If we all live with scarcity, then does that equal shortage? No, shortages are caused when the free market is tampered with, generally by the government. This economics textbook will help you and your students gain a better understanding of this and other \"Austrian\" ideas!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine McGrew Jaime\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.99w x 0.51d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781453830918\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarge Print\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCatherine Jaime did her undergraduate work at the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
