Book Description
Russell Cooper and Andrew John have written an economics text aimed directly at students from its very inception. You?re thinking, "Yeah, sure. I?ve heard that before." This textbook, Economics: Theory Through Applications, centers around student needs and expectations through two premises:? Students are motivated to study economics if they see that it relates to their own lives.? Students learn best from an inductive approach, in which they are first confronted with a problem, and then led through the process of solving that problem. Many books claim to present economics in a way that is digestible for students; Russell and Andrew have truly created one from scratch. This textbook will assist you in increasing students? economic literacy both by developing their aptitude for economic thinking and by presenting key insights about economics that every educated individual should know. How? Russell and Andrew have done three things in this text to accomplish that goal: Applications Ahead of Theory: They present all the theory that is standard in Principles books. But by beginning with applications, students get to learn why this theory is needed. Learning through Repetition: Important tools appear over and over again, allowing students to learn from repetition and to see how one framework can be useful in many different contexts. A Student?s Table of Contents vs. An Instructor?s Table of Contents: There is no further proof that Russell and Andrew have created a book aimed specifically at educating students about economics than their two tables of contents.

Microeconomic Theory
Author: Michael Eugene Wetzstein
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0415603692
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 1096
Book Description
This book introduces the main concepts of microeconomics to students who have undergone at least one elementary calculus course. It fully integrates graphical and mathematical concepts and offers analytical examples demonstrating numerical solutions. The book has a strong theoretical basis but shows how microeconomics can be brought to bear on the real world. New Features for this edition include: An incorporation of the theory of stock externalities associated with greenhouse gases ; Development of the section on insurance with particular reference to the new US healthcare program ; greater integration of game theoretic concepts throughout the book. The book's style is accessible, but also rigorous. Mathematical examples are provided throughout the book, in particular for key concepts and the result is a balanced approach in terms of prose, graphics, and mathematics.

Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 0857931024
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 627
Book Description
This comprehensive Handbook presents the current state of art in the theory and methodology of macroeconomic data analysis. It is intended as a reference for graduate students and researchers interested in exploring new methodologies, but can also be employed as a graduate text.

Microeconomics: Theory And Applications Part Ii
Author: S. P. S. Chauhan
Publisher: PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.
ISBN: 8120337158
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
This book presents a scientific and systematic development of the under-lying concepts of microeconomics with due emphasis on analytical and mathematical treatment, much needed for an application orientation of mind, to help students in understanding and tackling the real-world problems. The book is organized into nine chapters. The first chapter is devoted to price-output decisions of a monopoly. It provides a comprehensive account of these decisions under all their manifestations in a systematic manner with illustrative sketches and mathematical explanations. Chapters 2 to 4, devoted to imperfect markets, cover monopolistic competition, duopoly and oligopoly under different situations of product pricing and quantity determination. The analysis is systematic incorporating illustrative sketches and mathematical explanations. Chapter 4 presents the sales maximization models of Baumol. Chapter 5 is devoted to factor pricing and Chapter 6 to capital and investment decisions. The former focuses on pricing of variable and fixed factors of production while the latter on intertemporal analysis and choice under uncertainty. Chapters 7 to 9, devoted to general equilibrium and market failure, analyse topics on general equilibrium and Pareto efficiency, markets with asymmetric information and externalities and public goods. This title includes: over 145 neatly drawn figures to clarify the concepts; chapter-end summaries as 'key terms and concepts' to facilitate quick revision; over 410 chapter-end short and long answer questions of numerical and analytical nature with hints, and answers as appropriate to probe the student's assimilation of the material covered; and, numerous illustrative examples throughout the text to illustrate the application of concepts.
