Mathematics for Economists: An Introductory Textbook, Fifth Edition


Add your own review!

Overview

This book is a self-contained treatment of all the mathematics needed by undergraduate and masters-level students of economics, econometrics and finance. Building up gently from a very low level, the authors provide a clear, systematic coverage of calculus and matrix algebra. The second half of the book gives a thorough account of probability, dynamics and static and dynamic optimisation. The last three chapters are an accessible introduction to the rigorous mathematical analysis used in graduate-level economics. The emphasis throughout is on intuitive argument and problem-solving. All methods are illustrated by examples, exercises and problems selected from central areas of modern economic analysis. The book's careful arrangement in short chapters enables it to be used in a variety of course formats for students with or without prior knowledge of calculus, for reference and for self-study.

Reviews

This is the best mathematics for economists textbook that I have come across. It is very clearly written, starts at a basic level, and gradually advances all the way up to dynamic optimization in continuous time. I find that students understand dynamic economic models much better after having studied Pemberton and Rao's textbook. Paul S. Segerstrom, Professor of International Economics, Stockholm School of Economics -- .
