Overview
Your complete textbook of Microeconomic principles, theory and application
This new edition builds a comprehensive picture of the microeconomic tools required to solve a wide range of problems by using an innovative combination of written, illustrative and mathematical analysis. It helps the reader to think like an economist - in particular demonstrating how individuals, firms and policy-makers decide their best course of action.
Microeconomics is all new:
- New Content Β detailed discussions of choice in the face of risk; corporate governance; game theory; and the economics of information.
- New Feature Β Boxes of worked examples develop key ideas in the text and so bridge the gap between less formal presentation and mathematical analysis.
- New Structure Β Streamlined and modernised into eight balanced parts, the book has been reorganised to place valuable emphasis on evolving areas of the subject, whilst retaining core topics standard to microeconomic courses.
