Description
Book Introduction
Economic Mathematics Lectures Return to the Third Edition

Six years after the first edition was published in 2011 and the second edition in 2017, the third edition of 『Economic Mathematics Lectures』 has been published.
This time, we have especially reinforced the sections on functions (chapters 1-3), definite integrals (chapters 11), matrices (chapters 13-15), and total differentiation and implicit function theorem (chapters 17-18).
Practice problems have also been revised and supplemented based on the 2nd edition.
This book is suitable for beginners who are concerned about "what and how to study in economic mathematics," and serves as a guide for studying advanced economic mathematics.
You will be able to build a solid foundation in economic mathematics by learning through friendly explanations and real-life examples that feel like you are attending a lecture.
