Description:
Ideal for those with little or no background in economics, this book provides an in-depth discussion of a limited, but crucial set of economic principles and concepts -- then applies these tools of analysis to a wide variety of familiar situations. It presents conceptually demanding material in an informal, lively, often witty fashion and prepares readers to be able to clarify, systematize, and make sense out of the economic "news" and "views" they encounter everyday in newspapers, political messages, etc. It covers sophisticated -- but simple -- economic theory and features extended applications that challenge customary ways of thinking.
