Easy Economic Mathematics Lecture
Easy Economic Mathematics Lecture
Description
Book Introduction
An economics textbook for economics students who are afraid of math.

This book is a basic economic mathematics textbook for true liberal arts students who are worried about mathematics before studying economics.
The goal is to open up some of the areas that are hindered by mathematics in learning economics.
Through "Easy Economic Mathematics Lectures," you can build a solid foundation in mathematical concepts, interpret them from an economic perspective, and learn step-by-step how to handle economic models.

To achieve this, I tried to stick to the following principles: ① Repeat important concepts to the point of boredom.
② Whenever mathematical concepts are introduced, they are connected to economic concepts.
③ Mathematics is the focus, but economic models are also explained in as much detail as possible.
