Product Description

Review

"[Arnold] covers the main points carefully without making it sound complicated."

"The Arnold text is very clear and easy to read."

"Arnold's text is just right for my students because they can associate with the examples he uses. His simple explanations are easy to follow." --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Book Description

An introduction to basic principles of microeconomics, this text is intended for the one-term micro half of the "Principles of Economics" sequence. Balanced presentation of major macro theories, integration of international topics, and real-world applications are presented with a focus on the economic way of thinking. An "Economics on the Internet" feature offers hands-on exercises exploring economics on-line. Exhibits and graphs strategically use colour and cause/effect diagrams for maximum student accessibility and understanding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Economics Book, Dec 18 2005

By MaKuMD - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Microeconomics (with Infotrac) (Paperback)

If you are looking for an economics book that isn't going to put you to sleep, this is the one. It is complete yet interesting to read. Yes, I said interesting in the same sentence as economics. Arnold uses many real life examples that the average student can relate to and keeps the math to a minimum (there is an appendix for this stuff). By far the best intro to econ books are by Arnold.

1.0 out of 5 stars Kindle Version Is Terrible, Dec 3 2011

By Aaron R. Soucy - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

I read the reviews and rolled the dice. I am tired of lugging around heavy and bulking books and spending so much for textbooks. Digital versions are right up my alley. I should have contacted the publisher when the semester began but I can't believe they are not already aware of the issues. Here are some of the issues:

1) Entire images were missing - There would be a description for a graph or image but no image would appear.
2) Entire sentences would be replaced with text such as - AXNFHF HDKKSU HD HDIIWJ. I don't know what the intended text was.
3) Typos galore! Too many examples.

The text itself was as good as an economics book could be. The book itself would probably be 3 or 4 stars. Would I recommend getting the Kindle version? Sure. It is portable and if you rent it for the semester it is cheaper. Just know that you will be frustrated because of terrible quality. The publisher should really be ashamed of themselves.

FYI - I used this eBook on an iPad, iPhone, MacBook Air, and iMac. The issues were the same on all.

1.0 out of 5 stars kindle version problem, July 9 2011

By student - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

The kindle version of this book has not been edited. Full of spelling errors. There are what seems like some missing exhibits. Text exhibits are so low Res you can barely read them. If you are a student and plan to buy this book, buy the paperback. I would have switched if I could.
