Why do college students take economics? They may take economics to fulfill college requirements, because they think it may be the key to future riches, or for any number of other reasons. You know that the purpose of teaching economics is much larger, and the stakes are much higher—preparing students for informed and critical engagement with the burning issues of the day. And that's what Dollars & Sense Real World Economics books do. Here's what one college student was inspired to write to us:


Your analysis was incredibly helpful in understanding the recession and why recovery has been so lackluster. I simply wanted to express my gratitude for cutting through the smog of disinformation that our corporate media perpetuates and getting the facts out to people.

Dollars & Sense, the award-winning economics magazine, brings you a lively, thought-provoking supplement for classes in money and banking. Real World Banking and Finance (7th ed.) helps students relate financial topics—stock and bond markets, currency, the Fed, interest rates, global financial institutions, regulation, and more—to today’s headline-grabbing events.
