An introduction to basic economic theory and its applications. This text aims to keep students focused on learning and applying the central ideas used in economic analysis. It can be used as a study tool for students and a complement to, rather than a substitute for the instructor. Pedagogy and applications are designed to maintain a focus on the fundamentals while allowing instructors the flexibility to bring in additional material as they choose. In-text Internet links and a Web site provide opportunities and exercises for students to access and analyze additional real-world economic applications. Also available in micro and macro softcover split versions.

Principles and Applications

Economics

Departing from the encyclopedic nature of most Principles texts, which encourages students to simply memorize concepts and see economics as a collection of unrelated terms, formulas, graphs, and theories, this text provides students with a picture of economics as a unified discipline; a set of interrelated tools and ideas that can be used to look at the world in a different way. This book's concise, less is more approach has been carefully crafted in terms of both content and supporting pedagogy to keep students focused on learning and applying the central ideas used in economic analysis. It uniquely employs a simple methodology throughout to emulate how economists look at problems, and teaches students how to use this same analytical process in developing their own economic analysis skills. Hall/Lieberman's careful focus on core theoretical ideas as well as systematically applying the theoretical tools to interesting real-world questions conveys the message that economics is an integrated, powerful body of knowledge that can be used to address important issues.
