General Equilibrium Theory

Summary: Concise introduction to the mechanics of General Economics
Review: This textbook is a concise technical introduction to the mechanics of General Equilibrium, one of two main branches of economic theory. The text does not cover this extensive field in all its capacity. Instead, we have a step-by-step construction of the main models presented with great care for details, so that the reader can learn precision, careful modeling and all necessary details. Moreover, it's useful for people who have difficulty proving theorems.

There is a special bonus that might encourage you to buy the text. The fixed-point theorems are covered in a brilliant, really excellent way. There is no way around that tool in General Equilibrium, and while having difficulty with more sophisticated texts, I found Starr's book to be very helpful in this respect.
