Description
This text gives coverage of fundamental microeconomics topics. It blends conventional microeconomic theory with optional material on consumer behaviour, particularly rational economic decision-making behaviour. New end-of-chapter questions have been added to this edition, as has a chapter detailing the application of demand theory and the rational choice model. The chapter on preferences has also been re-worked and broadened in scope, giving a range of consumer preferences.
