Written specifically for the one semester survey of economics course, Schiller's Essentials of Economics is known for seeking the best possible answers to the basic questions of WHAT, HOW, and FOR WHOM to produce. As in earlier editions, the tenth edition strives to arouse interest in economic theories by illustrating them in the context of actual institutions, policy debates, and global developments. Built to provide interactive support for the introductory student, Connect® for the 10th edition features SmartBook®'s adaptive reading experience embedded with learning resources as well as guided examples featuring coauthor Karen Gebhardt, among other resources.
