What's New



Christopher Thomas has continued the text's tradition of continual improvement edition to edition. The Eighth Edition boasts several improvements, including:
  • Text Reorganized and Streamlined: the 8th Edition is significantly reorganized and streamlined to cover the necessary material in just 15 chapters instead of 18 in the previous edition. No critical topic has been omitted and students are now freer to focus on the most important topics and discussions.
  • Chapters 14 and 15 Combined: Former Chapters 14 and 15 are now combined into one chapter (13) so it is now possible to cover oligopoly in one chapter. This condensed coverage allows instructors to cover the material more completely in a shorter amount of time.
  • New and Expanded Topic Coverage: In response to reviewer feedback, the Eighth Edition offers new and enhanced topic coverage: facilitating practices in oligopoly, long-run and short-run expansion path analysis, cost-plus pricing techniques, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
  • Many All-New Illustrations and Problems: The Eighth Edition has 25 percent new Illustrations and a number of new or revised Technical and Applied Problems to match new coverage and reorganization. These help reinforce concepts in the text and prepare students for exam day.
