Micro Markets helps bridge the gap between theory and practice by defining microeconomics in terms of real-world, market applications.

This timely guide elucidates basic microeconomic concepts with an emphasis on applicability. It establishes a common application for all of the basic economic concepts that are reviewed, and provides in-depth insights into an industry that is of major economic importance in aggregate, and to most individuals.
