Description
4 things about this fifth edition:
1. As with previous editions, 5e is a mainstream book; it covers all the
main topics in a balanced way. Taylor writes about the subject with no
ideological axe to grind.
2. Focus remains on what’s made previous editions so well-received:
helping students solve problems. Taylor walks students through the
problem-solving process.
3. Professor Taylor has completely updated graphs, statistics, and examples
throughout. He has consistently tried to build connections between the
concepts in the text and the economic events of the last few years.
4. Professor Taylor’s mission is to make economics understandable to a wide
audience. This commitment is on view at conversableeconomist
.blogspot.com/, where he posts about 250 essays per year.
