Maths for Economics: A Companion to Mankiw and Taylor Economics

Description

This brand new edition of Maths for Economics: A Companion to Mankiw and Taylor Economics 4th edition assumes very little prior knowledge of mathematics and is essential reading for increasing your understanding. Applying the mathematics in context, this text will help to illuminate the economics you are studying. Following the structure of Mankiw and Taylor's Economics 4th edition, this text can be used alongside Mankiw and Taylor but it may also be used independently as a useful guide for any economics course requiring maths knowledge.
