520 _aCarefully written to compliment the new edition of Economics by Parkin, Powell and Mathews, the aim of the Study Guide is to reinforce the concepts student learn in the main textbook and to promote their ability to reason on economics issues. The Study Guide aims specifically to help students master their course material, and to succeed in their exams. The many pedagogical features are included to aid student comprehension, to test critical thinking ability and to help overcome some of the problems and dificulties students encounter when they begin a course of economic study. - Back cover.
