A good, high-level introduction without much math

I used this text for a distance-learning economics class I took this year. It was an excellent conceptual introduction. Reading it would allowed you to teach yourself a bit about Microeconomics, if you so desire.In particular, the concepts are explained clearly and succinctly. The authors use a variety of metaphors to daily life that are understandable to practically any adult. The book makes Micro interesting and relatable. The summary points at the end of each chapter (as well as the key points highlighted in bold lettering throughout the text) allow you to review quickly. There are a lot of good practice problems although the answers are not included in the text. Overall, I recommend the book highly. My only complaint is that the book is not particularly quantitative or mathematical. That is a strength, in that the book is more easily understandable, but it is also a weakness in that very quantitative people are sometimes left hanging, wanting a mathematical proof of a particular concept.
