Learning about economics can be a challenge for anyone, but it can be especially daunting for students. The Student Handbook to Economics set helps make fundamental economic concepts easy to understand for anyone unfamiliar with this field. This five-volume set provides comprehensive coverage of all areas of economics-from production and distribution to consumption and services. Students will learn about such concepts as supply and demand, opportunity cost, paradox of thrift, utility, corporations, globalism, and much more. Written in an engaging style and featuring helpful sidebars and a glossary in each volume, this set will be a one-stop source for anyone interested in learning more about this popular subject.

Our everyday economic lives can be examined through the lens of microeconomics-from ticket prices and sporting events to the cost of food and clothing. Microeconomics explores the behaviour of individuals and businesses, how markets work and are formed, and how the government influences markets.
