Economics 4th edition is a concise introduction to the core
principles of economics, aimed at students taking their first, and probably
only, one semester course in Economics. These students may be taking
a business related degree, or may be from other degree schemes in the university
taking a service course in Introductory Economics.
There is a balanced split between the micro and macro economics section and
the use of case studies and numerous examples makes this a lively little
book for the reader. The real difference that this book offers the student
is the amount and variety of questioning material that will really test their
understanding.
