Economics [with MyEconLab & eText 2-Semester Access Code]

by Richard G. Lipsey, Christopher T.S. Ragan, Paul A. Storer

When asked to describe this text, most Lipsey readers use the same precise. The authors do not gloss over subjects when presenting economic ideas; rather, they offer a patient explanation of the concept and back it up with the latest research and data. Taken separately, neither theory nor data alone can give readers a true understanding of the idea, but when combined these elements give students a complete view of economics in the real world.

Giving a shoutout to this book for getting me through my MSc because these guys are genuinely some of the only economists who can communicate economics in a clear way.

Lipsey made Economics so easy to digest and going to my Economics class back in college was not so bad after all.
