Show Me the Money: Big Questions about Finance

Divided into sections that focus on economics, business, personal finance, and the history of trade, takes technical jargon and breaks it down with easy-to-understand text, diagrams, and illustrations making a formerly dry subject interesting and relevant. Topical questions of ethics are addressed throughout, including free trade, fair trade, debt in the developing world, and the impact of business on the environment. The book also looks at personal finance from saving to pensions, and introduces key thinkers such as Adam Smith and John Maynard Keynes, to take a look at the bigger picture of the global economy. Updated to be in tune with today's culture of environmental and social awareness, is a good investment for young people who want to learn about economics and the world around them.
