Great Book For Anyone!
6 Sep 2000
When I first picked it up I was very unsure of what I was getting in to. I wasn't sure if this would just another dry all-in-one type book with loads of info. Rather this book by Fike and Stebben, puts Economics in real life terms! Easy read and very easy to follow, makes Econ. and enjoyable subject, unlike those college classes.

A Great Introduction or Review of Economic Concepts
3 Nov 2002
I enjoyed reading the book. It has some very creative examples and very humorous section titles. Everything You Need To Know About Economics is a great review of economics in general and I recommend it to anyone who would like to have a learn more or brush up on economic principles.
A fine laymens book
16 Feb 2009
Enjoying economics I noticed this book and picked it up. A great encounter. It clearly explains many of the garbled explanations we hear or read. It is done in fact that anyone even without any economic background can get a understanding of Bonds, GDP, Stocks and all the indicators of our government and our lives. I would recommend this book before beginning any education on finance or economics.
