Real World Micro, 15th edition, is a lively, thought-provoking supplement to introductory and intermediate microeconomics textbooks. Real World Micro critically examines topics such as market power, the economics of the environment, and job discrimination, offering alternative perspectives designed to stimulate discussion. The articles bring complex topics to life by showing the effects of economic trends on communities, workers, and the environment. In addition to covering the basics--supply and demand, production and consumption decisions, market structure and monopoly--Real World Micro explores economic principles by discussing government policy and workplace issues. The new edition introduces tackles a range of hot-button topics, including the chaos in the banking industry, growing inequality, tax policy, rent control, immigration, climate change, the Social Security debate, affordable housing, CEO compensation, and the privatization of public goods like water. The thoroughly revised and expanded 15th edition also contains new policy spotlight chapter on the impact of globalized trade.
And while Real World Micro is an excellent supplement to any mainstream text, its articles have been keyed to David Colander s popular textbook, Economics, 7th edition, and its microeconomics "split."
