Microeconomics Summary

Microeconomics by Roger A. Arnold (California State University, San Marcos)

The economy is tough -- but understanding microeconomics doesn't have to be. In fact, opening the world of economics can be exciting with Arnold's popular MICROECONOMICS, 14E. Economic tools, new thinking and theories show you how microeconomic forces impact daily events and form an important part of life 24/7. Current, everyday microeconomic examples and updated discussions and learning features illustrate many unexpected places economics can occur. You learn how supply and demand play out on a freeway, what a business cycle is, how a person pays for good weather and even why U-Haul rates are higher going from New York to Texas than from Texas to New York. Two new chapters examine health economics and economic research, including casual inference and machine learning. Digital video lectures and digital features guide you in understanding economic diagrams and building graphs, while online MindTap, Aplia and A+ Test Prep help you assess your understanding of microeconomics.
