Principles of Economics: Middle East Edition with CourseMate 1e [平裝]

內容簡介

This Middle East adaptation of the sixth edition of N. Gregory Mankiw's Principles of Economics includes dedicated case studies, news articles and features focussed specifically on the Middle East, integrated throughout the book. The features and content which made the US edition of the text so successful have been retained, including:

- The classic ten principles approach to economics – introduced in Chapter One and then referred to throughout the book designed to help build a framework for understanding

- The rigour necessary to help learners develop the confidence to think like economists

Principles of Economics: Middle East Edition is essential reading for all students taking introductory economics modules on undergraduate courses throughout the Middle East and will be of interest to students from the Middle East studying in other parts of the world. It is also ideal for use with the economics component of MBA courses.

This textbook is autopackaged with Coursemate. CourseMate brings course concepts to life with interactive learning, study, and exam preparation tools that support the printed textbook and the textbook-specific website. CourseMate includes an integrated eBook and interactive teaching and learning tools including quizzes, flashcards, videos, and more and an EngagementTracker, a first-of-its-kind tool that monitors student engagement in the course.
