Understanding Economics has been developed for those who want a shorter textbook for the one semester introductory economics course. In its first edition the text has been used successfully in both colleges and universities. The text is straightforward, concise and has been praised for its clear writing style.
For the second edition, the emphasis is on paring the text down even further, updating the data, and in providing a first class support package. In addition, there is a greater focus on the Information Technology sector and its ongoing impact on the Canadian economy.
