Microeconomic Theory

The 10th edition of this market-leading text offers cutting-edge coverage with a rigorous yet accessible approach to microeconomic concepts. Now streamlined to 19 chapters, it is widely regarded as the "bible of microeconomics," providing a clear presentation of advanced topics. Renowned author Walter Nicholson collaborates with Chris Snyder, a Dartmouth College professor, to bring a practical, real-world perspective based on their extensive classroom and marketplace experience. Utilizing a calculus-based approach, this text is tailored for upper-level undergraduates and beginning graduate students, ensuring an appropriate level of mathematical rigor. Its reader-friendly design helps students grasp and apply economic models, allowing them to engage directly with theoretical tools and real-world applications. Insightful graphics aid visual learners in understanding the connections between calculus and algebra/geometry. End-of-chapter problems are organized into two tiers: simple numerical exercises that build intuition, followed by more complex analytical problems. This edition distinguishes itself by making theory accessible while demonstrating its real-world relevance, setting it apart from more theoretical texts.
