Features: Principles of Economics provides an overview of all core economic issues, emphasizing the development of readers' economic analytical skills while narrating. The book encourages independent thinking, widely cites examples and data to support theoretical analysis, and offers authoritative commentary on key propositions in the field of economics. The arguments are clear and imaginative, following the rigorous style of Economics (6th Edition) while further refining the central principles of economics, making it more suitable for a broad range of students who cannot dedicate full time to learning economics. Principles of Economics is a condensed version of the BBC-praised "bible of economics," Economics (6th Edition), which concisely explains the fundamental principles of economics, widely citing examples and data to help students analyze and understand important theories. This book is a carefully crafted introductory textbook for students taking economics-based courses, written by three economics giants—David Berg, Stanley Fisher, and Rudiger Dornbusch.
