About this Book

Principles of Microeconomics – First Edition highlights the behavior of an individual household or business in a particular market. The textbook discusses choices that individuals make in allocation of resources. It provides a concise yet comprehensive account of the core topics of microeconomics, including theories of the consumer and of the firm, market structure, and market failures caused by externalities. This OER uses many current examples from the Canadian economy to balance theory and its application of economic concepts. It explains all the concepts, tools, and techniques in a lucid language targeted for undergraduate students.
