Essentials of Economics in Context
Autor Neva Goodwin, Jonathan M. Harris, Pratistha Joshi Rajkarnikar, Brian Roach, Tim B. Thorntonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2024
Aspects of history, institutions, gender, ethics, and ecology are integrated throughout the text, and economic analysis is presented within broader themes of human well-being, and social and environmental sustainability. Theoretical expositions in the text are kept close to reality by integrating numerous real-world examples and by presenting the material in the recognized accessible and engaging style of this experienced author team.
Key features include:
- a brand-new chapter devoted entirely to economic inequality
- up-to-date discussions of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on labor markets, inflation, and beyond
- an inclusive approach to economics, where the economy is analyzed within its social and environmental context (including a greater focus on topics outside of the United States)
- a focus on goals of human well-being, stability, and sustainability, instead of solely focusing on market activities

Recenzii
“Essentials of Economics in Context allows students to explore the fundamentals of economic theory within the real-world context of important contemporary economic issues. Students appreciate seeing the theory come to life, with applications to crucial topics like the environment, inequality, financialization, and many more pressing issues.”
Anastasia Wilson, Assistant Professor, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, United States
“This is a perfect introductory text to economics. Not only does it cover the basics that are needed for understanding modern-day economics, but it also addresses critical societal issues like the environment and inequality. Including all of this in a concise textbook suitable for a one-semester course is simply brilliant.”
Bertrand Hamaide, Professor, UCLouvain, Saint-Louis, Bruxelles, Belgium
“This book represents the cutting edge of theory, coupled with a wealth of carefully selected real-world data and case studies. Its slides, test banks, and other teaching resources are easy to use. Its grounded and contextualized approach brings the material alive. Highly recommended!”
Joris Tieleman, Chief Economist at the Center for Economy Studies, the Netherlands
