Principles of Microeconomics

Principles of Microeconomics by Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfers helps students see how economic thinking applies to the decisions they make every day - from what to buy, to how businesses set prices, to how markets work. It breaks down complex ideas with clarity and relevance; and it reimagines how core topics are taught: supply, demand, and equilibrium are introduced across multiple chapters, while market structures are framed as a spectrum of pricing and strategic decisions-making economic theory more intuitive and applicable. Students will still learn about monopolies and competition, but in a way that connects directly to real-world behaviour.
