Terms occuring only within an article rather than as separate entries are located via an index. 700 concepts are included. Bibliographical references are lacking. This work is aimed at the interested layperson. This dictionary includes 112 lengthy articles written mostly by college teachers.
Bibliographical references accompany each article.
Many cross-references are scattered among the articles. As there has been no new edition since 1980, it is no longer current. This handbook of economic terms, with 36 alphabetically arranged articles and a comprehensive keyword index, is also useful as a subject dictionary. Primarily intended for the layperson, the book contains strong references to current economic events, illustrations for each article, and review questions at the end. The book offers figures and explains relationships as well as defining concepts.
