Keep them coming! I love the "For Dummies" books - I'm reading the Economics one and I understand what they're talking about!

Thanks again

Yeah, I love the series as well. I was a little wary when they first came out. With a title like that they must be ridiculously basic, I thought. But then I flicked through one in the library and they actually give you as much information as many other books, they just lay it out in an easy-to-understand way.

I do like the books, I myself have got a degree in economics, and even though looking at the book is a bit trivial for me, I can see how good this would be for people looking to embark on learning new things.
