Customer Reviews

A great book on an analytical approach to economics
This book is adapted from the University of London external programme study guide for Introduction to Economics. The course takes a very analytical approach in economics which is not covered in most undergraduate economics textbook. This book is highly recommended for those mathematics lovers who makes more sense in economics through diagrams and equations, like me, rather than words.
