  Modern economics finds itself enmeshed in controversy: the world economic crisis, particularly acute in Britain, and the close relationship between economic theory and government policy has encouraged a lively debate about the fundamentals of the subject and the way it links with society as a whole. Students being introduced to economics for the first time often fail to grasp the essentials of the prevailing controversies and the key assumptions they highlight about the subject. This book remedies that deficiency by bringing together, in an accessible form, a concise and rigorous introduction to selected key issues in contemporary economics.
