Believe it or not, that old chair in your dining room can teach some important lessons about economics. Tracing its "life" from being a tree to its arrival in a large store as merchandise introduces key terms and concepts essential to understanding resources: natural, labor, and capital. Good graphics and a clear exposition of new terminology make this an accessible introduction to basic economic principles. Part of a 5-volume series entitled Economics: The Production, Distribution, and Consumption of Goods & Services, priced at $239 for the set, the other titles in the series are Money, Needs & Wants, Producing, and Consuming. Recommended. Aud: I, J. (E. Gieschen)
