内容説明・目次
内容説明
This book is a self-contained treatment of all the mathematics needed by undergraduate and beginning-graduate students of economics. Building up gently from a very low level, the authors provide a clear, systematic coverage of calculus and matrix algebra and easily accessible introductions to optimisation and dynamics. The emphasis throughout is on intuitive argument and problem-solving. All methods are illustrated by well-chosen examples and exercises selected from central areas of modern economic analysis.
New features of the second edition include:
> a thorough exposition of dynamic optimisation in discrete and continuous time
> an introduction to the rigorous mathematical analysis used in graduate-level economics
The book's careful arrangement in short chapters enables it to be used in a variety of course formats for students with and without prior knowledge of calculus, as well as for reference and self-study. -- .
