Managerial Economics: A Problem-Solving Approach

Review
'A thoughtful and well-written text which explains key concepts in a rigorous and accessible way. A particular strength is the rich collection of applications and case studies which demonstrate the value of the economic approach to many management problems and decisions. The well-designed solved problems demonstrate how the analytical techniques can be applied and will be particularly valuable in helping students to connect theory with practice and to solve problems for themselves. A very useful addition to the field.' Martin Carter, Leeds University Business School
'This is an exhaustive study of managerial economics with well-chosen case studies and clear explanations from an experienced teacher.' John Mark, King's College London

Nick Wilkinson adopts a user-friendly problem-solving approach which takes the reader in gradual steps from simple problems through increasingly difficult material to complex case studies.
