Following on from 'Basic Economics' which has been our best-selling photocopiable resource of the last 25 years, Tom Hamilton-Jones has produced another 15 basic topics. These have been updated from articles which previously appeared in Economics Today magazine and are excellent for class or revision use as they allow you to provide a different approach to a topic in a very compact and readable format.
The contents include:
- The law of diminishing returns
- The price mechanism
- Exchange rates
- Perfect competition and contestable markets
- Employment and unemployment
- Fiscal policy
- Price and non-price competition
- Aggregate demand and aggregate supply
- Consumer surplus
- The housing market
- Government failure
- The economic cycle
- Inflation
- EMU and the United Kingdom
- The invisible hand - does it really work?
