Classic features:
· Careful use of a wealth of examples and cases to make the subject relevant to the real world and bring it to life.

· Many new examples and boxes have been added.
· NEW Threshold Concepts feature explaining the core concepts you need to grasp in order to think like an economist.
· NEW Looking at the Maths panels express models and theories mathematically in addition to the words and diagrams used in the main body of the text. They are backed up by fully worked examples with questions and answers on the Companion Website, but can easily be omitted on less rigorous courses.
