Information is presented in question-and-answer format and arranged in general chapters. It covers the economy, taxes, the budget and its process, history, and government's involvement in banking. Questions are varied: "Why do I have to pay taxes?" "Where can I find information on the current year's budget?" "When did the federal government post its first deficit?" and "What happens when the dollar is devalued?" The chapter "Budget Timeline--Highlights from the Past 65 Years" gives insight into presidential administrations from FDR to Clinton. Liberal cross-references, question number guides at the bottom of each page, a bibliography, and an index are all useful for locating specific facts, definitions, figures, or concepts.
Recommended for secondary-school, academic, and public libraries, this book will be useful for answering questions on the economy and the federal budget. Its accessible style helps make the incomprehensible and complicated more coherent.
