Thought provoking economics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Holcombe's book is readable and good for developing clarity about how public administrators and the government generally perceives the market economy and its usefulness to society. Public Sector Economics is a good text for understanding how the market economy works in the United States, along with the corresponding needs and pitfalls. Holcombe's definitions are nicely illustrated with relevant and sometimes complex examples. It is not necessary to be versed in this genre-or even in agreement with its perspectives- to find this text helpful and enlightening. On the other hand, know that it is a graduate level study and may not be the best guide for someone with less than college level reading or minimal critical thinking skills.
