This short book offers a rigorous yet user-friendly introductory
guide for students who need to grasp the essential concepts of
economics quickly. It provides a serious, clearly understandable
and systematic account of the key elements of economics, with a
focus on theory and principles. The Economics You Need provides the
ideal introduction for students approaching economics from other
academic disciplines, as it uses only a limited amount of economics
jargon, and is constructed so that several chapters can be read
independently of the others. This book is structured around the
premise that a set of theoretical steps are necessary for
understanding economics as a way of thinking, rather than as a set
of solutions. It also encourages the reader to consider
alternatives to common assumptions, to acknowledge the need for
value judgements and to foster fresh thinking in an imperfect
world. This engaging primer will be essential reading not only for
students of economics, but also for students with a background in
disciplines such as politics, international relations and business
studies.
