520			_aBasic Economics is intended to give the reader a basic understanding of the operation of our economic system; to explain the roles of demand and supply in determining prices, to compare the merits of competition vs. monopoly, and to explain the use of antitrust regulations; to demonstrate the role of money and its effects on our economy; to present a measurement of production, employment, and income; to show the cur rent methods of economic analyses and the development of both demand-management and supply-side economic policies that are used to stabilize the growth of economic activity; and to relate international economics to our domestic economy. In short, the book endeavors to take the reader from scratch through a relatively high level of economic analysis in one term.
