Not too cute
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Having taught Economic Theory in both college and HS settings since 1980, I feel confident that this text is the most useful in introducing students to this discipline. Straightforward where it can be, but acknowledging the complexities that do exist in the study of economics, the authors provide a meaty text that serves as a great companion to a knowledgeable teacher. The teacher's own style and emphases can be integrated with the material that McConnell and Brue explore.
A detailed presentation of economic theory with real world applications.

As an instructor of economics, I would say McConnell and Brue's book is probably the best text to introduce students who may have no background or appreciation for the study of economics. It is well written and contains clear, concise analyses to examine important concepts and principles that have taken centuries to theorize and to validate. The authors also use several real world examples and case studies to help the reader apply economic concepts to business and societal problems. I still remember using an earlier edition of this text when I was an undergraduate student a number of years ago. I found it meaningful and practical then , and I find it quite valuable now as a teacher. Some things never change! I would higly recommend this text to students taking their introductory courses in economics. The material presented is quite relevant to the development of an understanding and appreciation of how humans and society satisfy their unilimited wants and needs given scarce resources and limited choices. I like to refer to it as "the philosophy of life." It never put me to sleep!
