Relates economic concepts to an environment that will be familiar and interesting to a European student within the context of a distinctively European focus without ignoring the importance of the US economy and the rest of the world. Provides students with the fundamental lessons of economics and shows how such lessons can be applied to the world in which they live. Devoted to applications and policy - and less to formal economic theory. aElectronic reproduction.bLondon :cThomson Learning (EMEA),d2006.nAvailable via World Wide Web. aMode of access: Internet. 0aEconomics. 0aEconomicszEurope. 0aMacroeconomics.1 aTaylor, Mark.2 aThomson Learning (EMEA)40uhttp://premier.bized.co.uk/Gatekeeper.asp?BOOKID=536943653
