Clear, beginner‑friendly economics from a trusted classic. This introduction explains what economics is and how it fits among the social sciences, with a focus on how people get and use wealth in a society.

Economics is presented as a practical, teachable guide to the wealth‑getting and wealth‑using parts of human life. The book outlines fundamental ideas, shows how economic life connects with money, production, exchange, and government, and frames the subject for teachers and students alike. It also includes aims, scope, and notes on using the material effectively in class.

• Foundational ideas about what economics studies and why it matters to everyday life


• How money functions as a medium of exchange, a measure of value, a standard of deferred payments, and a store of value
