Exploring Microeconomics

By Robert L. Sexton

Book Overview

The excitement of learning economics for the first time.
The experience of a lifetime of teaching it.

The Eighth Edition of Exploring Microeconomics captures the excitement of learning microeconomics for the first time through a lively and encouraging narrative that connects microeconomics to the world in a way that is familiar to students. Author Robert L. Sexton draws on over 25 years of teaching experience to capture students' attention, focusing on core concepts and expertly weaving in examples from current events and popular culture to make even classic economic principles modern and relatable. The text sticks to the basics and applies a thoughtful learning design, segmenting its presentation into brief, visually appealing, self-contained sections that are easier for students to digest and retain compared to sprawling text.

Thoughtfully placed section quizzes, interactive summaries, and problem sets help students check their comprehension at regular intervals and develop the critical thinking skills that will allow them to "think like economists." Combined with a complete teaching and learning package, Exploring Microeconomics is sure to help you ignite your students' passion for the field and reveal its practical application in the world around them.

Great value

I bought this book for my economics class not realizing that it can in different modules. However this turned out to be a good thing because instead of walking around with one large textbook I can now jus bring the module that I'll be using for the day. Also the price was amazing, a full 100 less than what they school was asking for it.
