Principles of Economics -OpenStax Principles of Economics covers the scope and sequence for a two-semester principles of economics course. The text also includes many current examples, including; discussions on the great recession, the controversy among economists over the Affordable Care Act, the recent government shutdown, and the appointment of the United States' first female Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen. The pedagogical choices, chapter arrangements, and learning objective fulfillment were developed and vetted with feedback from educators dedicated to the project. The outcome is a balanced approach to micro and macro economics, to both Keynesian and classical views, and the theory and application of economics concepts. Current events are treated in a politically-balanced way, as well. -OpenStax Authors: Cynthia Gamex, University of Texas at El Paso Andres Jauregui, Columbus State University This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.

Principles of Economics -Open Textbook Library The integrating theme for macroeconomics is the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply. Following its presentation in an early macroeconomics chapter, this model allows us to look at both short-run and long-run concepts and to address a variety of policy issues and debates. Recognizing that a course in economics may seem daunting to some students, we have tried to make the writing clear and engaging. Clarity comes in part from the intuitive presentation style, but we have also integrated a number of pedagogical features that we believe make learning economic concepts and principles easier and more fun. These features are very student-focused.

Introduction to Economic Analysis -Preston McAfee This book presents introductory economics ("principles") material using standard mathematical tools, including calculus. It is designed for a relatively sophisticated undergraduate who has not taken a basic university course in economics. It also contains the standard intermediate microeconomics material and some material that ought to be standard but is not. The book can easily serve as an intermediate microeconomics text. The focus of this book is on the conceptual tools and not on fluff. Most microeconomics texts are mostly fluff and the fluff market is exceedingly over-served by $100+ texts. In contrast, this book reflects the approach actually adopted by the majority of economists for understanding economic activity. There are lots of models and equations and no pictures of economists. -John McAfee Authors: Preston McAfee, Caltech, Economics Trecy Lewis, Duke University, Economics This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike license.
