Description
For one-semester or one-quarter survey or introductory courses in economics.
By focusing on five key principles and reinforcing them throughout the text, students see how various topics in this first course fit together. This text teaches students how to think and act like an economist by showing them how to use economic concepts in their everyday lives and careers. By using key concepts repeatedly, illustrating them with compelling real-world examples, and giving students lots of practice at "Active Learning," students will learn how to apply and use the principles and tools. Its modern coverage brings key research topics to your students in an accessible format. Covers both Micro and Macroeconomics in one concise paperback volume.
