Economics, Global Edition

by Daron Acemoğlu

An evidence-based approach to economics Throughout Economics, authors Daron Acemoglu, David Laibson, and John List use real economic questions and data to help students learn about the world around them.

Taking a fresh approach, the authors use the themes of optimization, equilibrium and empiricism to illustrate the power of simple economic ideas, and their ability to explain, predict, and improve what happens in the world.

Each chapter begins with an empirical question that is later answered using data in the Evidence-Based Economics feature.

As a result of the text's practical emphasis, students will learn to apply economic principles to guide the decisions they make in their own lives.

MyEconLab is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment product designed to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive, engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts.

I really miss the austrian school.
Unbeliavable how they ripped it off out the schollar index.

[Negar Ebrahimi]

پنج فصل منتخب استادم از این کتاب را برای آشنایی با روش تحقیق جذاب اقتصادی، مطالعات داده‌محور خواندم. به نظرم تا کنون بهترین کتابی است که برای افراد دقیقی که علاقه به شناخت بیشتر مفاهیم علم اقتصاد داشته باشند مناسب است. شاید در آینده آن را کامل بخوانم.

خود کتاب خوب بود ولی ترجمه در برخی جاها افتضاح بود و اگه متن اصلی رو نداشتم بسیاری از متن ها/نمودارها غیرقابل فهم میشد

یک کتاب کامل و البته مفصل(1300) صفحه.
در کنارش کلاس درس مبانی اقتصاد مسعود نیلی رو ببینید.

[Publius Decius Max · Rating 3 out of 5]

This textbook functions as a substitute good for Mankiw's textbook. Students, professors, and madmen who use their spare-time reading an 840-page textbook can expect to consume the good without a significant loss (if any) in utility.

This review is written in Persian and English!
ادیت سه رو خوندم.
البته بصورت روخوانی چون خیلی جاهاشو بلد بودم ولی بعضی جاهاش رو نخونده بودم.
عجم اوغلو حرف نداره کلا.
بعضی جاهاش رو فقط کم توضیح داده بود ولی در کل کتاب خوبی بود.
بیشتر میگن مبانی اقتصاد منکیو رو بخونین اونو نخوندم میگن بهتره اونو اگه حوندم ممکنه ریت این رو عوض کنم!
I read the third edition, but only glanced through it because I already knew most of the content. However, there were some parts that I was not familiar with. Daron Acemoğlu is an incredible person!
Some topics are explained shortly but I think it is worth reading.
Generally said that you should read Mankiw's principle of economics. I haven't read it so far. if I read it, it is possible to change this book's rate!

چاپ اول کتاب را با ترجمه روان و بسیار خوب دکتر بهشتی شیرازی خواندم و به نظر من بهترین کتابیست که با آن می توان مفاهیم اقتصاد خرد و کلان را
عمیقا آموخت. از نقات قوت این کتاب مثالها و ارجاعات کاملا به روزآن می باشد. (با توجه به تاریخ ترجمه)
