Features of Microeconomics: A Modern Approach, Third Edition
New Wall Street Journal Edition
A fresh, modern approach to intermediate microeconomics, this book breaks with tradition in a number of innovative ways:
- The author introduces game theory early and uses it consistently throughout the book.
- Experimental economics enriches and motivates the discussion at numerous points in the text.
- A continuing narrative that ties all the chapters together provides a cohesive framework for the theory.
- Consulting Reports propose solutions to economic problems, which are then critiqued by the author to encourage critical thinking on the part of the student.
In this edition, the author has added over one hundred Solved Problems, covering content review and applications/extensions, which give students a greater practical knowledge of the material and help them work through end-of-chapter problems. New material on game theory and new economic experiments reinforce the already effective treatment of economic concepts.
Andrew Schotter has taught microeconomics to thousands of students. In his teaching, he brings into play a host of unsolved problems and unanswered questions in microeconomic theory to help motivate his students and make the subject real. Rather than presenting undergraduate economics as a static discipline that never changes, he incorporates the abundance of new ideas that continually sweep through the economics profession. In that spirit, and as the title indicates, this book takes a modern approach.
