A MUST for Economics majors!, April 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Principles of Microeconomics: An Electronic Companion (Electronic Companion Series) (CD-ROM)
For anyone who wants to learn, and really understand, the principles of Microeconomics, this electronic companion software is an absolute must.
As an Economics major several years ago in college, I picked up the software on the recommendation of a past professor. My intention was to bone up on the basic concepts to better prepare for my pursuit of an MBA. What I found was an outstanding product that not only refreshed my memory of Economics, but taught me things I never knew before.
The difference is the product's use of mulitimedia to convey the information. Whereas I would toil over a textbook for hours during my college days, trying to comprehend a particular concept; this software illustrates the concepts using graphics, voice-overs, video, etc. that bring everything to life. Otherwise totally abstract ideas actually make sense. And it is done in such a way that the software is enjoyable to use.
I wish I would have had a tool like this while I was in college. For those studying Microeconomics, this is a tool you simply can't do without.
