Description: *Principles of Microeconomics* is an adaptation of the textbook, [*Microeconomics: Markets, Methods, and Models*](https://openlibrary.org/books/OL26493438M/Microeconomics) by D. Curtis and I. Irvine, which provides concise yet complete coverage of introductory microeconomic theory, application and policy in a Canadian and global environment.

This adaptation employs methods that use equations sparingly and do not utilize calculus. The key issues in most chapters are analyzed by introducing a numerical example or case study at the outset. Students are introduced immediately to the practice of taking a data set, examining it numerically, plotting it, and again analyzing the material in that form.

The end-of-chapter problems involve numerical and graphical analysis, and a small number of problems in each chapter involve solving simple linear equations (intersecting straight lines). However, a sufficient number of questions is provided for the student to test understanding of the material without working through that subset of questions.

This textbook is intended for a one-semester course, and can be used in a two-semester sequence with the companion textbook, [*Principles of Macroeconomics*](https://openlibrary.org/books/OL26493440M/Macroeconomics). The three introductory chapters are common to both textbooks.
