Overview

The Arab World edition of N. Gregory Mankiw’s Principles of Economics is essential reading for economics students in the Middle East and those with an interest in Islamic finance. Using Mankiw’s classic ten principles approach to economics, the book provides students with a framework for understanding the economy of the world they live in. Written in an engaging and accessible style and designed to encourage students to think like an economist, the text equips them to engage confidently and critically with theories and principles of economics.

Following on from the successful fourth edition, this text contains updated case studies, news articles and features that focus on the Arab world and current global challenges.

This fifth edition can also be purchased with MindTap, a fully interactive online learning platform with an interactive eReader, assessment questions, revision aids and engaging multimedia to explain key concepts and further case studies. It also provides analytics to help you keep track of students’ progress.
