AP Economics Review Guide

The review guide that I am suggesting and that we will be using in class is "5 Steps to a 5 Macro/Micro Economics" by Eric Dodge (ISBN-13: 9780071621861) $18.95 at www.barnesandnoble.com

This time of year you can find these books in stock at the local Barnes & Noble or Borders.
