3.5/10
-Many typos and examples that were clearly reused from older versions without updating content
-Accompanying mindtap problems are even worse
-Claims made are not always supported but are presented as fact rather than argument
-Formulas are given and manipulated as if facts, then much later in the chapter they say they are only quick estimates
-The content mix is good and presented in a logical order
-Decent use of real-world examples

This book, in my opinion, was very easy to understand. This is my first book learning about Economics and it had a way about it that, nearly, anyone could pick it up.

Economic books can be very dense, full of games, theories and so on - its a large field. This edition this a great job at keeping economics to its simplest form for new subject readers and students. The chapters are short and packed with, to-the-point, content. Its a good starting point.
