Created through a "student-tested, faculty-approved" review process with more than 150 students and faculty, Survey of ECON is an engaging and accessible solution to accommodate the diverse lifestyles of today's learners. Survey of ECON clearly demonstrates the exciting, practical role that economics plays in everyday life with its innovative approach. Award-winning author Robert Sexton uses a dynamic writing style within a presentation that reads like a business periodical. Brief easy-to-digest sections, built-in review questions, and memorable pop culture examples demonstrate the relevance of economics in the world today. The latest coverage of today's global financial crisis relates concepts in the book to current events, while real applications connect economics to readers' everyday lives and career success.
