Basic economics

by Edwin G. Dolan

In the sixties, students drifted away from economics in search of "relevance." Today we do not have to go around telling students that economics is relevant -- our rising enrollments show that they already know it is. Our job now is not to disappoint them. They come to our principles courses with simple, practical concerns and questions. We must be equipped to address those concerns and questions. That is what this book is all about. - Preface.
