With its clear and engaging writing style, Principles of Economics (Sixth Edition) continues to be one of the most popular books on economics available today. Mankiw emphasizes material that you are likely to find interesting about the economy (particularly if you are studying economics for the first time), including real-life scenarios, useful facts, and the many ways economic concepts play a role in the decisions you make every day.
About This Edition
Principles of Economics (Sixth Edition) became a bestseller after its introduction and continues to be the most popular and widely used text in the economics classroom. Instructors found it the perfect complement to their teaching. A text by a superb writer and economist that stressed the most important concepts without overwhelming students with an excess of detail was a formula that was quickly imitated, but has yet to be matched. The sixth edition features a strong revision of content in all thirty-six chapters. Dozens of new applications emphasize the real-world relevance of economics for today's students through interesting news articles, realistic case studies, and engaging problems. The premier ancillary package is the most extensive in the industry, using a team of instructors and preparers who have been with the project since the first edition. The text material is again fully integrated into Aplia, the best-selling online homework solution.
"I have tried to put myself in the position of someone seeing economics for the first time. My goal is to emphasize the material that students should--and do--find interesting about the study of the economy." – N. Gregory Mankiw

Additional Features
Created by economist Ron Cronovich of Carthage College, Premium PowerPoint® Presentations feature chapter-by-chapter slides designed to ease educators' course preparation time while increasing student involvement in the classroom. The presentations organize lecture points into sections that students can easily digest, animate graphs the way instructors might draw them, and include "Student Note Prompt" handouts to facilitate effective note taking without distracting students from active participation in class.
"In the News" boxes include excerpts from many newspaper articles and encourage students to apply basic economic theory to discover how economics can provide an illuminating new perspective and enable greater understanding of world events.
"FYI" boxes provide additional material to expand key concepts and discussions by offering a glimpse into the history of economic thought, clarifying technical issues, and exploring supplementary topics you might choose to complement your core lectures.
Economic theory is most useful and interesting when applied to actual events and policies, which is why the text contains numerous Case Studies to vividly illustrate the real-world applications and consequences of key principles.
"Quick Quizzes" follow each major section to help students check their comprehension of what they just learned and to focus their review when preparing for exams.
Each chapter contains a variety of problems and applications that encourage students to apply the material they have learned. These practical, interesting activities serve equally well as homework assignments and starting points for lively classroom discussions.
一看到《经济学原理》这样的书名,我会立即把它归为异次元一类,碰都不会去碰,别说读它了,自从大学毕业后,对于任何此类教科书,我会毫不客气地说,滚! 这种情绪的对立既包含了对中国残忍教育制度的控诉,又体现了对死读书无法改变命运的残酷现实的无奈,于是对于每年6月充...
评分看过此书,总体上宏观经济部分依据的也是供需模型。并且,后面的财政政策、货币政策、通胀、失业对我们现实也有指导分析意义。只能说是在现实实践中不断积累吧。 第八篇 引入一些宏观经济学的度量概念。经济中的总支出等于经济中的总收入。 GDP即是某个时期内,一个国家内生...
评分 评分我两年前读过此书的第二版。 也试着读过萨缪尔森和斯蒂格利茨的经济学教科书。但不得不承认,我还是觉得曼昆的比较好读。作为非此专业的爱好者,前两种教科书也可以读下去,但需要用学习的意志强迫自己。曼昆的这本书则不同,很吸引人。 尤其是梁小民的翻译很精彩。梁小民的很...
评分最后几章的笔记 竞争市场上的企业 如果卖家没法凭一人之力决定市场价格,那么该市场是竞争性的。 完全竞争:有很多的买者和卖者,商品都差不多,企业可以自由进出市场。 为什么生意惨淡的餐馆还开着?以为餐馆成本有2块:固定成本和可变成本。固定的有房租、工资,厨房设备和盘...
你们搞得这本书啊,比高鸿业不知有趣到哪里去了
评分总算读完了...YM自己...
评分有时候觉得写得真是好啊,拍大腿!有时候就觉得这不就是胡扯么,怎么扯都行。。。
评分终于读完了,果然还是上课才会更有动力来啃这些非本专业的大块头。海闻老师实在太厉害,终于感觉经济学有点入门的味道了,期望明天考试能有一个好的结果。寒假还有两本经济学的书可以继续啃啊,excited
评分读《joe on software》,建议程序员也得懂点微观经济学。当时选了这本书的第三版,读完之后给我的冲击力太大了,经济学十大原理直接瓦解了我的理想信念。感觉前面真是白活了。同时,这本书的理论和陈志武的《金融的逻辑》让我对中国股市彻底失去了信心,坚定离开了股市,避免了一定的经济损失。
