Review by Caraculiambro for Principles of Microeconomics, 5th Edition
Rating:
This is a demanding high school (or undemanding college) introductory textbook on the subject. Only the most rudimentary algebra is required, and honestly one could easily get through the book without even that.
The edition is handsomely printed, with a font that’s easy on the eye and plenty of colorful and helpfully-glossed graphs. The chapters themselves are not too long, which helps with a student’s morale, believe me.
Recently I was put into a situation where I had to go, in the space of about 4 months, from knowing jack-squat about economics to being able to teach college-level macroeconomics!
Well, I frantically collected a ton of textbooks and articles about macroeconomics, ranging from the elementary to the abstruse and got to work.
And I gotta say: when something befuddled me and I found myself threshing about from text to text for the best explanation, it was nearly always Mankiw who came through with the critical phrasing that made the idea click and got me saying: “Ohhhhhh! I get it!” most often.
Not that this was always the case. There were times when I found better explanations elsewhere (e.g., Chapter 19, on the foreign currency market, is exasperatingly elliptical and could use a major dummying-down), but more often than not, Mr. Mankiw had the goods: the clearest and most easy-to-follow way of wording or graphing a slippery or counter-intuitive concept.
Of course, it’s easy to hate Mr. Mankiw: he’s young, he’s handsome, he’s brilliant (one of the youngest full professors ever at Harvard), and he’s rich (his textbooks are now standard in AP courses nationwide). Jerk!
Because of these reasons, I would love to trash his book, showing how it “ain’t all that.”
Well, it is. Gulp.
Only one note: If you’re planning on getting this book to study macroeconomics independently, you will find one irritating drawback: there are exercises at the end of each chapter, but no answers in the back. Essentially, therefore, it’s a book for schoolchildren, not mature learners.
But its explanations — believe me — can’t be beat.

I don’t normally bother reviewing textbooks, but this one was so good I felt compelled to. I had absolutely no background in economics, but this book explained the concepts and the principles underlying them so clearly that I picked the topic up very easily. Not only is it very clear, but it’s very well-written and presents its information in a creative and sometimes even entertaining way.Even though I’m not going to be taking Macroeconomics in college at all, I’m still planning to buys Mankiw’s Macroeconomics book, too. His microeconomics book has made me want to learn more about a topic I previously had no interest in!

I use this book in my economics class and all I can say is that is excellent. The author describes the basic concepts without being too complicated and messy. He keeps the things simple and incorporates some real-life economic problems and discussions into each chapter. The book overall provides a clear insight into microeconomics and shows what it is all about.

Review by Andrew McCaffrey for Principles of Microeconomics, 5th Edition

This book was the textbook used in a class I was enrolled in on microeconomics. Since it was only an introductory course, this book did a good job of covering a lot of the basic fundamentals that one needed to know before proceeding onto more advanced material. If all you are looking for is a rough guide to the subject without anything terribly in-depth, then this text work well for you. The sections that are touched on are covered extremely well and everything is explained with a lot of clarity. On the other hand, it is a rather frustrating read at times, as it breezes over some of the more interesting aspects of economics. It would have been helpful if the author had gone into more detail during certain sections, or at least had directed the reader to other publications where one could learn more.Note to the buyer: Beware that the first six chapters in this book are identical to the first six chapters in PRINCIPLES OF MACROECONOMICS (note the “A”) written by the same author. And I am not exaggerating when I say they are identical — even the practice problems are the same. If you are looking for some variety in introducing yourself to economics, you may want to use a different set of books. To have this much repetition in books… may not be something you are interested in, so be careful before buying the second if you already own the first.

Rating:
I would have given it 5 stars if the price was lower, but that’s what you get for text books these days. It was still cheaper than buying it at Berkeley’s bookstore.
I found this book to be very informative and well written whith good flow and easy to understand examples. The author brings current events into the world of Microeconomics, and allows the reader to understand the underlying mechanism that drives the decisions we make. When used in conjunction with a class, or by itself, this book provides the novice with a thorough understanding of the principles of Microeconomics.
