This book MICRO and MACRO Economics theory has been written for the students of BBA, B.COM, M.COM and MBA. This book covers the syllabus of almost all the universities and institutions running with the courses. Although this book is for under graduation but it also covers up the syllabus of the post graduation classes and even for the beginners of the subject, who have knowledge on the priority basis in this field would found this book easy to understand, the graph and mathematical analysis has been used but in a manner that even without mathematics background students will found it out more easy to grasp the points. The explanations and examples of the books are specifically written with the concepts of economics in the background and are not general cases on management. This will further enhance the value of the book in future. I have a great pleasure in presenting this book to the faculties and students of this subject. Although there are many books available in the market on this subject, but my experience of about ten years shows that the students somehow miss-out on basis concept of topic and, therefore, tend to consider this subject as very tough and difficult. Hence, in writing this book special emphasis has been laid on simplicity of language and presentation without losing the academic rigor of the contents. Even difficult topics have been presented in such a manner that the student understands it easily. Unnecessary details have been avoided.
