Böcker av Saul Estrin

Intellectual advances in economics often come from debates that have been long forgotten but which offer context, depth and clarity to contemporary study.

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.
