Having had no previous experience in the field of economics, I found this book to be comprehensive without being complicated. I found Begg's use of diagrams to explain complex models very useful. In addition I found the text to be easy to follow due to its logical progression through the earliest to the latest economic models. Whilst the book seeks to teach the fundamental principles of modern day economics, it does not bore the reader with dry text - the inclusion of separate text boxes with applied examples adds to the worth of this book.

I found this book matches its publicity - well laid out, good examples and accessible. Many other textbooks can look visually confusing, and doesn't necessarily give the student an idea of priorities for their own learning.
It is the recommended text for students as an introduction to economics. However, the students who do health economics preferred it to other standard texts as their first foray into principles.

This is one of the best books on economics around. I found it very easy to use and every thing was explained very well. The CD aid was also helpful with a good set of revision notes.

A comprehensive, well written text
This book is very useful for a basic understanding of both micro and macro economics. Clearly written and quite comprehensive. One of the best books for 1st year students.

Simple and friendly, but not convincing.
I'm in the second year of a three year undergraduate economics course. I have a copy of an earlier edition (without the CD), and used it for first year undergraduate study. Read more
