The explanations are clear and very well thought out without sacrificing important concepts. I couldn't recommend it highly enough as a text book to give you a leg up into more involved mathematical economics." --"Amazon.co.uk 24 August 2004" "the most comprehensive reader in this topic yet, this book is an essential aid to the avid economist who loathes mathematics " --"Amazon.co.uk 25 January 2002"
