About the Book
Common Cents gives average Americans the fundamental knowledge they need to make smart decisions on family finances, investments, jobs, even health care and outsourcing. Now available in paperback, it brings into focus the hot-button economic, social, and political issues that dominate the front pages of newspapers--especially during these trying financial times. Instead of get-rich-quick schemes or insider stock tips, Dr. Nancy J. Kimelman addresses the most pressing questions of our time, helping readers raise their economic IQ so they can enjoy a more comfortable, assured, and intelligent life.
