Economics

Discover the exciting world of economics and learn to think like an economist, using key concepts and data to analyse solutions to real-world challenges – from international issues to a range of everyday problems that affect us all.

Economics, 12th edition, by expert authors Sloman, Garratt and Guest is an essential resource for all students of economics, providing a thorough grounding in theory and practice and insight into the constantly-changing, often complex issues economists face.

Comprehensive yet accessible, this best-selling student text has been extensively revised to reflect developments shaping the global economy in the 2020s, including rising geopolitical tensions and financial instability, the impacts of the second Trump administration, a slowing move to net zero, the long-term legacy of post-Covid debt, the rise in social media misinformation, and more – developments that present both economic problems and opportunities.

Economics, 12th edition will help you:

• Apply economics to real-world issues – 170 case studies and applications show how concepts translate into policy and practice around the world.
• Develop critical thinking – questions throughout each chapter encourage you to reflect and engage at a deeper level, building confidence to understand and evaluate different economic policies.
• Enhance employability skills – learn to analyse problems, devise your own solutions, and think flexibly and critically, applying core ideas to new situations.
• Keep up-to-date – follow the regularly updated news blog that accompanies this textbook for articles, videos, podcasts, and more.
