Description
Economics is a highly successful text that has established itself as a market leader around the globe. The text is known and respected for its comprehensive coverage of introductory economics, the clarity of exposition, its lively applied sections and the high quality of its four-colour artwork. The central goal of the third edition is to present the core concepts of a principles economics course, and to use those principles to explain the key issues and problems facing the UK and other European economies in the 1990's.
