Product Description

The essay plans contained in the book cover the most commonly asked questions on each syllabus area of microeconomics and macroeconomics. The author has used a wealth of experience in teaching and examining in economics to provide a useful manual for all students of the subject. Ernie Jowsey provides clear, practical help both in preparing material and in writing up the final essay. The book has a section providing advice on how to write essays in the subject of economics, and each essay plan is organised according to the same structure for clarity (Introduction; Main Arguments; Conclusion; Further Reading). Most are illustrated with a simple figure. The book functions as a summary of important topics and provides the student with a proactive method of learning and revision. Working through 100 Essay Plans in Economics can therefore be used as alternative way of covering the introductory syllabus alongside the economics principles texts. This makes the book an invaluable learning aid to students embarking on first year undergraduate economics courses, as well as to those preparing for essay paper examinations in economics.

Customer Reviews

A useful book to help you through A-Level economics
I thought the book would be of limited use but needed something desperately to improve my essay technique. It is much more comprehensive than the essay plans we've been given in class, it helps you to develop your thoughts while giving useful hints of the necessary theory. It became of more use when I got closer to the examination period, being extremely useful in the timed essay practice. Some of the essays that I practiced came up in my exams which meant that I was really well prepared for them. I would recommend this book to anyone who has difficulties in essay writing.

Useful for first-year degree and a-level
I found this book really useful for both A-Level Economics (got an A!) and for the first year of my degree. It provides essay plans for any type of essay you are likely to get in your exam. Also useful for coursework. Definitely the most useful econ book you could buy!
