Principles of Economics

The book avoids an over-reliance on formal mathematical derivations and instead presents concepts visually through examples drawn from familiar contexts. The authors present a short list of coherent core principles and reinforce each by illustrating and applying them in many contexts. The authors also encourage us to become 'economic naturalists', by applying basic economic principles to understand and explain what we observe in the world around us.
