Economics

Real examples. Real companies. Real business decisions.

Many students of first year economics ask themselves "why am I here?" and "will I ever use this?". Essentials of Economics answers these questions by demonstrating that real businesses use economics to make real decisions every day.

The authors believe that students can learn to apply economics principles successfully if they learn them in a familiar context. By using a wealth of relevant global and local businesses examples and case studies, Essentials of Economics makes the subject relevant and meaningful.
