Principles of Economics

Formidable. Facile à comprendre.

This is probably the best introductory book in economics out there. Being a very technical field, books in economics can be too technical (textbooks) or too simple (light reads). This is the perfect mix between the two. Not too technical, not too light. It’s the most popular introductory textbook in top US universities. In the title of this review, I called it the Encyclopædia Britannica of Economics because you can pretty much find anything here: - Basic Principles - Equilibrium Analysis - Market Efficiency - Market Failures (Externalities, Public Goods, and Imperfect Competition) - Government Failures (Public Choice) - Macroeconomic Data - Growth Theory - Financial Sector - Monetary Economics - International Economics - Business Cycles - Monetary and Fiscal Policy It’s all in here. A final warning note. Gregory Mankiw has three “principles” textbooks: - Principles in Economics (this book) - Principles in Microeconomics - Principles in Macroeconomics There’s a big overlap between the three. In particular, there’s nothing on the last two that is not on the first one. Therefore, if you own the first one, you don’t need any of the other two.

This introduction book covers widely issues, which might not be useful for economics courses only. The cases example is more useful for observation in daily life rather than in classroom.

Book in perfect condition, fast shipping. Very satisfied!
