Abstract
This book is written with the intention of exposing undergraduate students to the world of Economics. The book aims to achieve the following objectives:
To expose students to the fundamental principles, theories and concepts of economics that will lay the foundation, which they could build upon at higher education level.
I am of the view that possession of knowledge of macroeconomics and microeconomics environments is an essential skill that we must all have in order to navigate the complex economic environments we are exposed to in our daily lives. Having said that, it must be noted that, although, knowledge is an essential attribute, on its own, it can only make a minimal contribution to examination success. Therefore, to be able to score high marks in Economics examinations, students must demonstrate knowledge with ability to apply economic theory, principles and concepts, analytical and evaluative skills. In view of this, the book has been written in such a style that would enable them to develop these skills. There are practice questions posed at the end of selected chapters, which students could attempt to gauge their understating of chapters’ topics. The answers to those questions are also provided at the end of the book.
