Reader Reviews
Please buy this book if you expect to make a 7 on your IB Exam. This book is extremely thorough and addresses each issue of the IB syllabus in a detailed understandable way. I only wish I used it sooner. I had an okay Economics teacher and suited with one of most incomprehensible textbooks I've ever had to deal with. However, when I picked up this book, I was so surprised at how easy economics is to understand. Plus the things in this book are EXPECTED to be said in your IB Economics exam essay. Being that I already took the IB Economics exam, I think I can have enough right to say that this book hands you pretty much anything and everything you need to know better than some 150 dollar text book. Best review book!
