Summary

The book can help overcome the widely observed math-phobia and math-aversion among undergraduate students in these subjects. The book can also help them understand why they have to learn different mathematical techniques, how they can be applied, and how they will equip them in their further studies.#xE3;#xAC;#xAC; The book provides a thorough but lucid exposition of most of the mathematical techniques applied in the fields of economics, business and finance. The book deals with topics right from high school mathematics to relatively advanced areas of differential and difference equations covering in the middle the topics of linear algebra; differential and integral calculus; classical optimization; linear and nonlinear programming; and game theory. #xE3;#xAC;#xAC; Though the book directly caters to the needs of undergraduate students in economics, business and finance, graduate students in these subjects will also definitely find the book an invaluable tool as supplementary reading. The dedicated website of the book provides an introduction to and applications of Mathematica#xC2;#xAE;,one of the world#xE2;#xAC;"s leading computational softwares.
