Product Description The best-selling, best known text in Mathematical Economics course, Chiang teaches the basic mathematical methods indispensable for understanding current economic literature. the book's patient explanations are written in an informal, non-intimidating style. To underscore the relevance of mathematics to economics, the author allows the economist's analytical needs to motivate the study of related mathematical techniques; he then illustrates these techniques with appropriate economics models. Graphic illustrations often visually reinforce algebraic results. Many exercise problems serve as drills and help bolster student confidence. These major types of economic analysis are covered: statics, comparative statics, optimization problems, dynamics, and mathematical programming. These mathematical methods are introduced: matrix algebra, differential and integral calculus, differential equations, difference equations, and convex sets. | ||

good the condition of the book was good but it would be better if the seller mention that the book is international version. | ||
an axcellent cpmpanion when I was at the beginning of my scientific training in theoretical economics I encountered, occasionally, the book of Alpha Chiang. In had been a fantastic meeting. Alpha Chiang hab been the key for entering into the fundamentals of mathematics for economists. Maurizio Mistri professor of economics, Padua (Italy) | ||
Fundamental methods of mathematical economics This is the best book in mathematical economics. Clear, it complete in every its chapter. It's advisable for beginner or for advanced students. | ||
Solid Introduction This book was our text for a course in Mathematical Economics at Temple University. It is a nice introduction to the topic. It's a bit light on explanatory details for those new to the field of economics, but the mathematics coverage is sufficient. | ||
Solid Foundation This book promises exactly what the title says, and in a solid way. Very good...I wish there could be a similarly written one on the next level. | ||
