520 | _a"... the purpose of Economics for Today, 2nd. ed., is to teach in an engaging style the basic operations of the U.S. economy to students who will take a two-term economics course. Rather than taking an encyclopedic approach to economic concepts, Economics for Today focuses on the most important tools in economics supply and demand analysis and applies it to clearly explain real-world economic issues. In a nutshell, every effort has been made to make Economics for Today the most "student friendly" text on the market. This text was written to simplify the often confusing array of economic analyses that forces students to simply memorize in order to pass the course. Instead, Economics for Today, presents a straightforward and unbiased approach that effectively teaches the application of basic economic principles". - Preface. | ||
