Economics 2nd Edition
Matt Mcgee
Author Matt McGee is an experienced teacher, currently teaching in Mexico City, who is also a regular lecturer at Oxford Revision Courses. Also included (under Further Information) are some supplementary resources.
This second edition of Matt’s highly successful text includes:
· A larger (215x280mm) page size and enhanced page layout (576pp)
· Two colour presentation
· Updated examples and case studies
· Improved and expanded theory sections.
His book covers the entire 2-year diploma program, SL & HL. It follows a ‘define, exemplify, and put into context’ outline and contains extensive examples referenced in over 1,200 footnotes as well as discussions on contemporary issues outlined in case studies, stories and questions with supporting answers. It is hoped that these will induce and elicit extensive debate since economics should be seen as an applied science.
While following the IB syllabus, this book intentionally goes beyond the core areas to provide students with greater depth and coverage of economic theory and applications. Non-syllabus material is clearly delineated. Students and teachers who are used to a 'dry' treatment of the subject will find this book provocative, enlightening and refreshing. This is a rather personal account from an economist who clearly loves teaching and is equipped with a wry sense of humour. Readers will find a mixture of solid academia, shoot-from-the-hip earthiness and simple humour.
