A little background. I taught economics at a Christian school for several years and have some acquaintance with the BJU and Abeka Economics texts. I would say this overall curriculum is better, especially with the Making Choices primary resource and the accompanying books.

Altogether a good resource that I would use again.

This is a wonderful collection of literature from the last couple centuries concerning economics. It was very good and many of the stories of the huge business owners like Henry Ford and Dave Thomas were very uplifting and touching. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this.

It was a good book for a school book I guess, I didn't fall asleep reading it so 4/5.
