21st Century Economics
A Reference Handbook

Providing both crucial information and inspiration in a non-threatening, highly readable format, these two volumes encompass analysis of traditional economic theory and topics as well as those that economists have only more recently addressed.

And economists seeking to learn about extensions of analysis into new areas or about new approaches will benefit from chapters that introduce cutting-edge topics. To make the book accessible to undergraduate students, models have been presented only in graphical format (minimal calculus) and empirical evidence has been summarized in ways that do not require much background in statistics or econometrics. It is thereby hoped that chapters will provide both crucial information and inspiration in a non-threatening, highly readable format.
