Economics

Economics touches almost every aspect of life: from climate change policy to employee salaries, house prices to how much time one spends studying! Economics, 12th European Edition by Parkin, Powell & Matthews gets you to think like an economist by incorporating the latest policy, data and discussions on important global issues, and enables you to evaluate economic practices to make more informed decisions. This text offers a thorough overview with clear graphs to represent economic concepts visually, a strong focus on real-world applications, and regular opportunities to check your understanding. Case studies on current issues and features such as 'Economics in Action' showcase how economic theories apply to the latest developments in Europe and the UK, including European debates on offshore outsourcing, consideration of the impacts of food price growth caused by the invasion of Ukraine, and more. Take the path that all leading economists began on, with this comprehensive textbook. "Parkin et al. remains a constant beacon of quality and standards, and is at the top of my reading list. The chapters begin with real-world context before explaining clearly the formal tools that economist use. The explanations are pithy and accessible, the diagrams are very clearly drawn and accurate. The summaries, helpful practice questions and suggested study plans, linked to MyLab, offer students a complete learning experience." - Dr Tim Wakeley, Senior Lecturer in Business Economics and Associate Dean, University of Bath "Provides a clear, reader-friendly and rigorous introduction to economic principles, combining strong theoretical foundations with relevant real-world examples. It remains an excellent core text for undergraduate economics students." - Nicholas Vasilakos, Professor of Sustainable Business Economics & Public Policy, University of East Anglia Pair this text with MyLab Economics MyLab is the teaching and learning platform available to support this title.
