The fundamentals of economics
Περιγραφή:
The Fundamentals of Economics has been written as a textbook to offer a complete introduction for the student of economics. It is designed to offer a solid grasp of the fundamental concepts of the subject, but also to afford its reader the opportunity to extend this knowledge further. For students following various sixth-form curricula such as the new IB syllabus and GCE A-levels, this book provides an excellent platform for the acquisition of the necessary economic theory and will challenge them to go beyond typical textbook analysis, in many cases.
As such, this book can comfortably serve as a First Year undergraduate study platform in the discipline. The author, who has over twenty years of teaching experience within the IB and GCE A-level environments, as well as tutoring undergraduate and postgraduate students of economics, wanted to take a step away from the case-study laden textbooks in circulation and offer a book that would be both comprehensive in nature and easy to read.
