More about the book

Economics is the European adaptation of classic textbook Principles of Economics by N. Gregory Mankiw (Harvard University), expertly adapted by Mark P. Taylor (Washington University) so as to be even more relevant to a UK and European audience.A major strength of the original—that the authors present economics from the viewpoint of a reader completely new to the subject has been maintained. The conversational yet precise writing style is superb for presenting the politics and science of economic theories to tomorrow's decision-makers. The book stands out amongst all other principles texts by encouraging students to apply an economic way of thinking in their daily lives. Economics is written to provide students with a robust conceptual understanding of the subject using contemporary approaches to theory where possible.It follows the structure of the original book while reflecting European economic structures and institutions and adapting the language and cultural references for a European readership.
