This book teaches microeconomics as a way of looking at the world, using plenty of new applications and examples to demonstrate the theory. Because it uses calculus (only in footnotes), this book is considered to be in the upper mid-range in its mathematical rigor. An optimal balance of theory and applications is maintained by working from the specific to the general—with many lively and interesting examples used as a means of developing economic theory in a careful and rigorous way. A seven-part organization covers numerous topics under the headings of: an introduction to microeconomics, individual choice, production and cost, markets for goods, resource markets and general equilibrium, imperfect competition, and uncertainty and asymmetric information. For individuals trying to apply the theory of microeconomics to the economics of the real world.

HARCOURT, BRACE

Determined to document the lives and customs of the Native people of the Northwest before contact with white settlers changed them forever, the Canadian artists Paul Kane set out in 1845 to cross the continent ‘with no companions but my portfolio and a box of paints, my gun and a stock of ammunition.’ Travelling by canoe and snowshoe, on foot and on horseback via the Hudson’s Bay Company fur brigade routes, he made his way from the Great Lakes to the Pacific coast and back again. When he returned to Toronto in the fall of 1848, he brought back some five hundred field sketches and a remarkable collection of artifacts, which he used as raw material for one hundred oil paintings depicting scenes of Native life. While the carefully executed oil paintings are deliberately romaticized images of the West that conform to nineteenth-century standards of taste, the original field sketches,which are not widely known, are fresher, more objective and authentic, more direct and undeliberated. A fascinating complement to the sketches is a small diary that Kane kept while on his journey. Brief and plainspoken, its entries were jotted down with idiosyncratic spelling and punctuation. In 1859, Kane published a journal based on these notes, which became a bestseller in Europe and North America. In Paul Kane’s Great Nor-West, Diana Eaton and Sheila Urbanek recreate Kane’s heroic journey and bring to life the people and places he encountered. Their narrative supplies the historical context to illuminate his travels, while frequently drawing on Kane’s own words from his diary and published journal. The voice of the artist himself is heard in descriptions of one of the last great buffalo hunts, of a desperate winter crossing over the Rockies, of the impassioned ‘crying of war’ of a Cree chief, and of many other unique experiences. Illustrated with a wide selection of the field sketches as well as his better known oil paintings, Paul Kane’s Great Nor-West reintroduces this remarkable artist to a modern audience. It not only celebrates his extraordinary journey but also creates a unique and immensely varied panorama of the nineteenth century ‘Great Nor-West.’
