Good Introductory Text on Economics

I used this book on the economics subject during my university days. It enabled me to read the subject from an introductory level and to delve into a more in depth study of this fascinating science. The book provides a comprehensive coverage of economics for first year undergraduate students. It provides an excellent foundation for those who wish to specialize in the subject. The book has been kept up-to-date with current developments in the field to include risk analysis and assessment, decision making under uncertainty and incomplete information and has several informative examples that reinforce the student's grasp of the subject.
