About Dollars & Sense Books

Each year, Dollars & Sense books give thousands of college students the economic story that their textbooks don't tell.

"As textbooks become more conservative and less topical, I find that Dollars & Sense readers are more useful than ever in my undergraduate classes. They are jargon-free, up-to-date, and inexpensive—as well as consistently and thoughtfully progressive. I recommend them highly."
—Robin Hahnel, American University
