This book is wonderful. First, it's humorous and keeps the reader interested, which is very hard to do with a textbook. Yet I find myself, for the first time, actually *wanting* to read this book. For example, the last chapter I read started with "diarrhea is a killer".
Not only that, but the textbook also explains everything really well. It's simple and easy to understand. They lay it out really well.
So yes. I'd 100% recommend this textbook.

Purchase options and add-ons
Engaging and provocative writing, as well as a knack for revealing the 'invisible hand' of economics at work have made Cowen and Tabarrok's Modern Principles of Economics a singularly distinctive and effective textbook for the principles course.

I received the textbook a few days sooner than expected. An honest description and price for the used textbook. As I plan ahead, this purchase will keep my costs down for the fall semester. Thanks!

Awesome deal and great condition
Reviewed in the United States on 6 February 2021Verified Purchase
I first purchased this textbook from one company and somehow it didn't make delivery and Amazon immediately got on the ball and replaced it. The book is used, but overall great condition and saved me $200. Thank You!

Worked but was falling apart
Reviewed in the United States on 1 April 2023Verified Purchase
I rented this which worked well for my class, but I was scared to take the book anywhere because the cover was ready to fall off the book when I received it. Aside from that it was great

I had a good experience, the book arrived on time
Reviewed in the United States on 23 July 2018Verified Purchase
I had a good experience, the book arrived on time. I didn't have an issue extending the rent for another semester because it covers both Macro and Micro Economics. I read it all and did the practice questions which helped me get As in both classes.
