This is a substantial update of the classic Modern Economics. It has been updated to reflect recent developments in the field, and made more student-friendly with the addition of "Learning Objectives" at the start of chapters, chapter summaries and review questions at the end of chapters, and boxed examples and case studies incorporated throughout.

This study guide and workbook is designed to accompany the sixth edition, although it can also be used with similar texts for students taking economics as part of their professional examinations. It draws attention to the important points on which students should concentrate their study and tests their understanding of the basic concepts.
