Title overview
This ISBN is for the Pearson eText and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplement.
As the world shifts to a greater reliance on digital media, it is appropriate that this text evolves as well. This eleventh edition is the first fully digital version of Economics: Canada in the Global Environment. Instructors and students will find that, although the medium has changed, the content is fully consistent with prior editions.
The economic way of thinking is a foundational skill for citizenship and career. Every feature of Parkin/Bade helps the student develop this skill, repeatedly using its central ideas of tradeoff; opportunity cost; the margin; incentives; the gains from voluntary exchange; the forces of demand, supply, and equilibrium; the pursuit of economic rent; and the tension between self-interest and the social interest.
Parkin/Bade is thoroughly updated, intuitive rather than technical, grounded in data and empirical evidence, extensively illustrated with well-chosen examples and photographs, enlivened with applications that focus on issues at play in today's world, focused on learning-by-doing, and seamlessly integrated with MyLab Economics.
