Principles of Economics 3e

Rate this book
Original Release December 2022. Printed in black & white. Principles of Economics 3e covers the scope and sequence of most introductory economics courses. The third edition takes a balanced approach to the theory and application of economics concepts. The text uses conversational language and ample illustrations to explore economic theories, and provides a wide array of examples using both fictional and real-world scenarios. The third edition has been carefully and thoroughly updated to reflect current data and understanding, as well as to provide a deeper background in diverse contributors and their impacts on economic thought and analysis. For example, the third edition highlights the research and views of a broader group of economists. Brief references and deeply explored socio-political examples have been updated to showcase the critical - and sometimes unnoticed - ties between economic developments and topics relevant to students. A fuller list of changes made in Principles of Economics 3e are described in the preface and the transition guide to help instructors transition to the third edition.

Kurang mendalam untuk mahasiswa ekonomi, tidak menarik untuk umum, informatif untuk yang membutuhkan kerangka berfikir ekonomi secara umum.

A very long read

Each chapter is a clear and straightforward layout of an economics concept including examples. I enjoyed reading the book and learned a lot.

This is an updated and straightforward academic book. After 20 years of studying economics, I needed to review some concepts. I am actually surprised how much I enjoyed this reading!

As you can conclude from the title, this book is about Principles of Economics; and I have to say that it is a great book, I’ve learned so much from it. It is a 800+ pages long, and the summary will be long.

I gave this book five stars rating because I am very satisfied with the information provided in it.

I learn so many new things that I didn’t know before. I have to say that there are many information that I’ve already knew; but that’s normal, we learn so much through work.

I would recommend for anyone who is interested in economic basics to read this book.

One thing that most get into my head, is buying domestic products to save the jobs in country; I wasn’t aware that, that could lead to loosing jobs in other sectors; it can also lead for the companies to become monopolistic ones. I did sit down and started to think, that buying only domestic made products have lead to increases in prices, in country where I live. But the workers in those companies don’t benefit from increased revenue and profit that companies are making; they are also pay higher prices for those products, with same salaries as before.

This book have helped me to start thinking differently about so many things.

The summary was long, but I’ve tried it to kept as short as possible, and still include important information; the book is over 800+ pages long.

I hope that you will get through this summary, and I hope that you’ll end up reading this book.

The book gives a very good introduction to economics. Personally, I have learned a lot from it. However it is biased towards the liberal economics and the US model for public policy regarding economics.

A dry, dull instructional book. There seem to be better options out there if someone is interested in learning the basics. This was a required book for a class and I dreaded reading it.

Interesting read

I like learning facts and so far have understood what is being explained about economics. Looking forward to reading more.
