A solved-problem introduction to basic concepts in calculus, differential equations, matrix algebra, and linear programming as applied to economics. In this edition, calculator solutions will replace the use of logarithm tables. Topics such as logarithmic differentiation, area under a curve, and l'Hopital's rule, as well as simultaneous differential and difference equations are added. The first four chapters have been redone to make them more rigorous. The book assumes no mathematics background beyond high school algebra and provides students with basic mathematical tools necessary for an understanding of economics as presently taught.
It is not rational to buy expensive textbooks on mathematical economics when you have this book available to you - it is inexpensive, comprehensive and explains things very clearly, what else do you want ? If you have to learn this subject, then at the very least do not spend a fortune on it.
Short briefly with a lot of exercises but it's not in-depth fundamental mathematical economics book like Alpha,Chiang I recommend for freshman who pass calculus 1 and Micro Economics 1 courses even more there're somethings beyond fundamental microeconomics like Cobb–Douglas production function.
