Principles of Microeconomics

by Libby Rittenberg, Timothy Tregarthen

Flat World Knowledge is honored to publish a new, first edition re-launch of Tim Tregarthen's wonderful principles of microeconomics book, and proud to bring Tim's incredible talents as a teacher back to life so future generations of students can continue to learn from him. In 1996, he published the first edition of his principles of microeconomics textbook to great acclaim, and it became widely used in colleges around the country. That same year, MS made him wheelchair-bound. The disease forced his retirement from teaching at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in 1998. He lost the use of his arms in 2001 and has been quadriplegic ever since. Tim never let his disease get him down. In fact, he turned back to his love of writing and teaching for inspiration. He obtained a voice-activated computer, recruited a co-author, Libby Rittenberg of Colorado College, and turned his attention to revising his principles of economics book. Today we are excited to introduce Libby Rittenbe

I read it for class, and it was very clear and helpful. I especially liked the case in point sections at the end of each section.

spent 16 weeks with this book. I figured I might as well put it on here.

Some parts of it is too simplistic. My professor explained the concepts much better than this textbook
