Economics: An Integrated Approach
(Introduces the fundamentals of economics within a compreh...)
Introduces the fundamentals of economics within a comprehensive approach and a straightforward presentation. KEY TOPICS: Written in a clear, direct style to ensure that the material is accessible and understandable to a wide range of readers. Economics: An Integrated Approach has a "free-market" bias, which means that it assumes people are rational, that they make choices, and that they weigh the costs and benefits of each decision. Ethical issues, as related to the major topics of economics, are integral to the book. These issues are woven throughout to demonstrate that economic analysis can help foster social justice. The book also presents economics from a practical perspective that allows readers to quickly apply the tools of economic analysis to their own decisions, and to begin making public policy analyses using the tools they have acquired. A valuable introduction to economics which will be useful for readers interested in the subject, including economics associations, social service agencies and professionals, and as a corporate training tool.
