This book is designed as a supplemental tool for courses in microeconomics and mathematical economics. It shows professors and students steps to solving microeconomics problems.;Readers may begin reading at any chapter, and they may use the book as a virtual instructor to facilitate self-learning. They will recognize some of the popular problems, which have been taken from widely-used microeconomics texts;Also included is a CD-ROM containing the Mathematica MathReader (a viewing program similar to Adobe Acrobat) and folders specific to each chapter of the book.;This book emphasizes economics over mathematics as it:; Presents applications of the mathematics required to solve microeconomics problems; Demonstrates the use of computational tools to do;mathematics;; Provides discussions of the results of the problems; Stimulates users to extend the programs and perform their own comparative statics and dynamics;; Provides users with tools to build their own Mathematica programs for microeconomics.
