Als Teilgebiet der Volkswirtschaftslehre beschäftigt sich die Mikroökonomie mit dem wirtschaftlichen Verhalten einzelner Wirtschaftssubjekte (Haushalte und Unternehmen). Neben den Marktakteuren werden auch die Marktstrukturen (Monopol, Oligopol, Polypol) und die jeweiligen institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen berücksichtigt. Das Lehrbuch von Besanko und Braeutigam erklärt Mikroökonomie leicht verständlich und praxisnah. Es enthält viele spannende und aktuelle Anwendungen von wirtschaftspolitischem Interesse (z.B. Klimapolitik und sinnvolle industrieökonomische Beispiele). Verhaltensökonomische Argumente werden eingestreut, ohne dass die traditionelle Theorie vernachlässigt wird. Learning-by-Doing Aufgaben und mathematische Daten in Verbindung mit Graphiken ermöglichen dem Leser, wichtige Konzepte und Strukturen zu verstehen. Die didaktische Aufbereitung der einzelnen Kapitel ermöglicht es den Studierenden auch, sich wesentliche Inhalte im Selbststudium zu erschließen.
