Mathematics for Economists: An Introductory TextbookManchester University Press, 2001 - 613 pages This innovative book is a thorough, completely self-contained survey of all the mathematics necessary for the study of economics. The authors provide a clear, systematic coverage of calculus and matrix algebra and easily accessible introductions to optimization and dynamics. The emphasis throughout is on intuitive argument and problem-solving rather than proofs and formulae. All methods are illustrated by well-chosen examples and exercises chosen from central areas of modern economic analysis. |
