Description
For courses in intermediate microeconomics, price theory, microeconomic theory, and MBA courses in managerial economics.
Rich with examples, this reality-based economics text continues its pioneering approach of integrating theory and applications, showing how microeconomic analysis sheds light on market behavior, guides personal and financial decisions, and explains behavior in such areas as politics, crime, and the family.
