How does your level of education affect your lifetime earnings
profile? Will economic development lead to increased environmental
degradation? How does the participation of women in the labor force
differ across countries? How do college scholarship rules affect
savings? Students come to economics wanting answers to questions
like these. While these questions span different disciplines within
economics, the methods used to address them draw on a common set of
mathematical tools and techniques. The second edition of
Mathematical Methods for Economics continues the tradition of the
first edition by successfully teaching these tools and techniques
through presenting them in conjunction with interesting and
engaging economic applications. In fact, each of the questions
posed above is the subject of an application in Mathematical
Methods for Economics. The applications in the text provide
students with an understanding of the use of mathematics in
economics, an understanding that is difficult for students to grasp
without numerous explicit examples. The applications also motivate
the study of the material, develop mathematical comprehension and
hone economic intuition. Mathematical Methods for Economics
presents you with an opportunity to offer each economics major a
resource that will enhance his or her education by providing tools
that will open doors to understanding.
