Overview

This book helps readers understand fundamental economics by connecting it to the real-world business, work, and public policy issues they are already concerned about.A friendly overview of economics for non-specialists, this book uses examples from around the world to introduce fundamental economic concepts. Readers will learn how to apply economic theory to questions like: What will be the results of Eastern European economic reform? Is it worth the effort to beat inflation? What does the supply-side revolution really mean? What is the economist's perspective on environmental issues? Should Europe convert to a single currency? Boxed chapter introductions, end-of-chapter questions, key word definitions and further readings make this text even more useful.This book is for any non-specialist or student interested in fundamental economics.
