Principles of Microeconomics and Graphing CD-ROM with InfoTrac College Edition

by Fred M. Gottheil

Gottheil's (U. of Illinois) introduction to economics works to ease undergraduates into the topic with basic principles and daily-life applications, avoiding too much lofty theory. The latest edition strengthens an emphasis on economics as part of the larger universe of social sciences through sidebar boxes that provide global, interdisciplinary, historical, applied, and theoretical perspectives elaborating on the text.

This was the required textbook for Intro to Microeconomics at Dixie State College of Utah. I enjoyed learning about how the economy works on the micro level, would like to learn more about the macro level.
