Good for conservative basics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
The book is easy to read. Many useful clippings for examples from the media. Although, it needs better explanation or grinding of the concepts of "marginal". The "marginal use" was explained perfectly, however it would help expand or better explain the "marginal cost, profit". It is especially empirical for the students from Eastern Europe, former Soviet area, and Asian countries. In many of those countries the concept of "micro" economy never existed. Yet, after some years of the free market economy, explanations of concepts of "marginal product" and other marginals would come in handy. Besides, this edition needs to get closer to reality of now-a-days and prepare students for the new way of thinking and merging into the concepts of "social benefits", "environmental resources", "social responsibilities", and "facing globalization". In this sense, book is behind.

This book was a great addition to my on-line microeconomics course. They use really current business information and real-life examples to make is easier to understand. The problems are challenging. You should have a basic understanding of charts and graphs before economics though.
Macroeconomy Today
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This textbook is quite a comprehensive of introductory macroeconomics. Great graphs, well-explained, carefully thought out. The one downside is that it is quite idealistic, as one would expect of a neo-classical economist. The author does not recognize flaws in the theories nor does he acknowledge that the real world is not so cut-and-dry and ordered as we would be led to believe. However, as stated before, this is a wonderful introductory text for anyone who wants to understand the economy today.
