Assignment Two: Unit Three
Another possible topic of mine would be how has society influenced economical systems, and how has economic systems influenced society? The terms I began my search with were economic systems, the subject headings I found in my search were consistent of conflict, case management, economics, systems, and advancement. Questions that came into my mind were how could I best explain the impact economic systems have had on society. The author of the print book I found is Pryor, Frederic L, the title is Economic systems of foraging, agricultural, and industrial societies, the call number is HB90 .P789 2005. The book discusses societies that have gone from foraging to farming and the economic systems involved in those societies as well as the economic systems of agriculturalists, going into advanced market economic systems and the systemic changes in those systems, and it goes over Marxism economics. The book found in the reference collection is written by Bannock, Graham, the title is Dictionary of Economics, the call number is HB61 .B33 1998. The book is about what the title states it is a dictionary of relating material of economics. The author of the ebook I found are Alice M. Rivlin and Joseph R. Antos, the title is Restoring Fiscal Sanity: The Health Spending Challenge, I wasn't able to find the call number for the ebook however. The information covered in the book is strategies for slowing down health spending information on medicare, helth reform, and how to increase the efficiency and effictiveness of crae provided. The information found on this topic made me think more about how much of an impact on a large scale society has on economics and economics on society. It's made it more complex by all the different areas economics can effect a given society in. My final topic sentence being most people generally don't realize how much of an impact economics has on society and in so many areas of everyday life, think of just about any aspect in societal life and economics has influenced that aspect in one way or another.

"Consistent of conflict" is not a subject heading (nor is "consistency of conflict"). Case management is a subject heading, as is economics. "Systems" is not a subject heading, nor it "advancement."
I'm wondering if you just used keywords rather than going further and finding subject headings and it just so happens that two of your choices turned out to be subject headings.
Please be sure that you understand the difference between words or keywords and subject headings.
