Features: This book aims to accurately, concisely, and systematically elaborate on the fundamental theories and methods of modern economics. In explaining economic principles, it adopts a progressive approach from simple to complex, layer by layer, supplemented by diagrams or mathematical models. The purpose is to deepen the understanding of economic theories, appreciate the rigorous logical reasoning of economic analysis, and cultivate students' ability to use common methods and tools of modern economics to analyze real-world economic problems. The mathematical models used in this book are limited to simple advanced mathematics methods, which should not be difficult for undergraduate students with a foundation in advanced mathematics. Of course, for readers without training in mathematical and quantitative methods, omitting the more challenging mathematical derivations does not hinder the understanding and mastery of the basic principles. Therefore, this book is also suitable for students from other disciplines. The book has the following features:
1. It introduces the recent developments in macroeconomics over the past few decades, such as endogenous growth models and consumption credit theory, in a simple and clear manner. These new theories are becoming core components of modern economics.
2. It emphasizes the connection between theory and reality, applying abstract theories to analyze practical problems and providing specific examples to help students develop the ability to use their knowledge and skills to solve real-world issues.
3. For self-study convenience, each chapter concludes with a "Summary" that outlines the key points of the chapter. The review questions at the end of each chapter help students consolidate and deepen their understanding of the content, avoiding rote memorization.
