| Abstract
|
:
|
"Economics for South African students is a comprehensive introduction to economics in general, set against a contemporary South African background. The easy style and many practical examples make this publication extremely accessible. The book covers all the material usually prescribed for introductory courses, and it lays a solid foundation for intermediate and advanced studies in economics. The fi fth edition is a restructured, thoroughly revised and updated version of the popular fourth edition. As in the previous editions, the emphasis is on the application of economic theory. A wealth of relevant information about the South African economy is also provided. This book is also available in Afrikaans. South African workbook for economics is an additional resource that students can purchase at their local bookstore or online retailer.
