1. Principles of Economics by N. Gregory Mankiw,
Hardcover: 892 pages, Publisher: South-Western College
The author's conversational writing style is superb for
presenting the politics and science of economic theories
to tomorrow's decision-makers. Because Mankiw wrote it
for the students, the book stands out among all other
principles texts by encouraging students to apply an
economic way of thinking in their daily lives. Receiving
such a praise as "perhaps the best ever" textbook in
economic principles, it's no wonder Mankiw's prize
project has quickly become one of the most successful
books ever to be published in the college marketplace.
2. Basic Economics: A Citizens Guide to the Economy,
Revised and Expanded by Thomas Sowell, Hardcover: 496
pages, Publisher: Basic Books
This is the revised and enlarged edition of a new kind
of introduction to economics for the general
public-without graphs, statistics, or jargon. In
addition to being updated, Basic Economics has also
become more internationalized by including economic
problems from more countries around the world, because
the basic principles of economics are not confined by
national borders. While most chapter titles remain the
same, their contents have changed considerably,
reflecting the experiences of many different peoples and
cultures.
3. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Economics by Tom
Gorman, Paperback: 352 pages, Publisher: Alpha Books
Local or global, economic issues are on the public's
mind-but making sense of supply and demand isn't so
simple. This book explains in everyday terms how markets
work, introducing the key players-consumers, business,
and government-and using their behavior to illustrate
basic theories and ideas. In addition, it coaches both
general readers and students in the key concepts and
analytical tools of macroeconomics and microeconomics,
and teaches the dynamics of markets, consumer behavior,
business investment, budgets and taxation, recession and
expansions, unemployment and inflation, and more.
4. Applied Economics: Thinking Beyond Stage One by
Thomas Sowell, Hardcover: 246 pages, Publisher: Basic
Books
The application of economics to major contemporary real
world problems--housing, medical care, discrimination,
the economic development of nations--is the theme of
this new book that tackles these and other issues head
on in plain language, as distinguished from the usual
jargon of economists. It examines economic policies not
simply in terms of their immediate effects but also in
terms of their later repercussions, which are often very
different and longer lasting. The interplay of politics
with economics is another theme of Applied Economics,
whose examples are drawn from experiences around the
world, showing how similar incentives and constraints
tend to produce similar outcomes among very disparate
peoples and cultures.5.
