内容説明
"Essentials of Economics" brings the same captivating writing and innovative features of Krugman/Wells to the one-term combined micro/macro course. Adapted by Martha Onley (coauthor of the Krugman/Wells study guide and overall coordinator of its media/supplements package), it is the ideal text for teaching basic economic principles in a real-world context to students who are not planning to continue up the economics curriculum.

Lucid up-to-date introduction
2010/5/23
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Krugman, who is popularly known for his recent New York Times op-eds castigating both Bush and Obama, which are collected in several books of his,The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008, Peddling Prosperity: Economic Sense and Nonsense in an Age of Diminished Expectations, The Conscience of a Liberal is a Nobel Prize-winning economist, noted for his work in international trade. His colleagues claim that his structural intuitions and proofs are beautiful.
Krugman says that he worked harder on this book than any other book that he wrote, making last-minute corrections and additions during his trip to receive the Nobel Prize. He made an effort to make every definition and explanation as lucid as possible.
A valuable feature of this book is that he and his partner/ co-author decided to include a section on the business cycle, while most other books available (prior to the recent credit crunch) eliminated discussion of the business cycle, thinking it to be eliminated by clever government fine-tuning of the economy. Once the book appeared, in the midst of the credit-collapse, this section became extremely relevant.
This is the most lucid and up-to-date introductory economics text presently available.

A good introductory economics textbook
2012/2/12
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
There ain't no way of getting around this: it's an introductory economics textbook. This means the language is more simplistic than a scholarly work and the coverage of topics is less dense. Malthus, for instance, only gets a small text box, and there is no mention of the neo-Malthusians. It contains all the standard topics of an introductory economics textbook (argh, even the dreaded Supply and Demand model). Those expecting (or dreading) a long rant on Keynes will be disappointed, he's mentioned only three times in the entire book, a total of about six sentences. Malthus gets more ink than Keynes does.
I enjoyed my time with this book. Though simple and easy to follow, the text goes into greater detail and handles more topics than I expected from my long-ago Econ 101 class. I had never heard of Deadweight Loss before; nor had I ever encountered a basic discussion of oligopolies and monopolies. There's even a chapter on the Federal Reserve system. I'll admit I slept through some of my Econ 101 lectures, but I didn't sleep through THAT many lectures. If your exposure to economics occurred about fifteen or twenty years ago, you'll be deeply surprised at the things you never heard of before. Jobless recoveries get a brief mention, and the book even dips a toe into economic aggregates and macroeconomic theory.
I highly recommend this for college classes on the subject or for self-study. However....it's an economics textbook, not for casual reading.
