Résumé

This applications-oriented text gives students the mathematical tools they need to comprehend and work with economic concepts at the intermediate or advanced level. By emphasizing the use of mathematics in actual economic models, this textbook guides students through important techniques, without leading them through a maze of formal proofs. The organization of the text, with each theory chapter followed by a chapter of applications, balances the mathematical tools that students need to learn with economics applications.

Benefits

An appendix reviews basic calculus to refresh students' memories.
Economic applications of static and dynamic game theory are covered.
An extensive treatment of constrained optimization includes discussions of inequality constraints and duality.
Each chapter (except Chapter 1) includes extensive end-of-chapter problems. The solutions to these problems are provided in the Instructor's Manual.
