Book Description

In writing this textbook, Mankiw has tried to put himself in the position of someone seeing economics for the first time. The authors conversational writing style is superb for presenting the politics and science of economic theories to tomorrows decision-makers.

Because Mankiw wrote it for the students, the book stands out among all other principle texts by intriguing students to apply an economic way of thinking in their daily lives. Receiving such praise as "perhaps the best ever" textbook in economic principles, it is no wonder Mankiw’s prize project has quickly become one of the most successful books ever to be published in the college marketplace.

Final Review

This excellent book will guide you into the area of micro economics. It not just because of wonderful design and pretty pictures that this book gets such good reviews.

I have tested the complete book by reading from front to back and assessing my knowledge by passing a simulated academic test. Key areas are explained and you get enough diagrams to understand the way shortages and surpluses affect the economy. But as I noticed being tired after a long working day, I needed to exercise my understanding by using the offered study guide.

I have enjoyed this book and expanded my knowledge at a high quality level. This is a real A+ Quality for Money Product. It is certainly a large, heavy book but the paper, the print and cover are well produced.

I personally can only recommend this book to any freshman at english speaking universities. I understand that many universites in the US and Australia use this as a basis to train their students.
