Curtis and I. Irvine, which provides concise yet complete coverage of introductory microeconomic theory, application and policy in a Canadian and global environment. This adaptation employs methods that use equations sparingly and do not utilize calculus. The key issues in most chapters are analyzed by introducing a numerical example or case study at the outset. Students are introduced immediately to the practice of taking a data set, examining it numerically, plotting it, and again analyzing the material in that form. The end-of-chapter problems involve numerical and graphical analysis, and a small number of problems in each chapter involve solving simple linear equations (intersecting straight lines). However, a sufficient number of questions is provided for the student to test understanding of the material without working through that subset of questions. This text is intended for a one-semester course, and can be used in a two-semester sequence with the companion text, Principles of Macroeconomics. The three introductory chapters are common to both books"--BC Campus website UR - https://open.bccampus.ca/find-open-textbooks/?uuid=9ba4ea28-e75d-4cc9-bbfc-ca7e845068a8&contributor=&keyword=&subject= UR - http://solr.bccampus.ca:8001/bcc/file/9ba4ea28-e75d-4cc9-bbfc-ca7e845068a8/1/Print%20%28.pdf%29.pdf UR - https://laecon1.lyryx.com/open_ciprinmicro/ ER -
