Este primer tomo presenta los fundamentos de la microeconomía —la escasez, los incentivos, los precios y la asignación de recursos— a través de preguntas que estimulan el razonamiento crítico. Con prosa clara y ejemplos cotidianos relevantes, se dirige a estudiantes de humanidades, docentes, periodistas y lectores interesados que no cuentan con formación técnica en economía. Y también a economistas, claro.
