I am definitely that student that likes to skim the class readings before the lecture and skip all the unnecessary parts, but this textbook was actually very easy to read. The writing is really up to date, so there's a lot of references to current events (within the last ten years, at least), and the examples are so well done. Seriously, I've never understood daunting math like this (just in the graphs), because the examples make it so clear.
I ended up reading parts of this textbook, just for fun. YEAH, it was just that good. I feel bad I'm only renting it!

If you have time to explore microeconomics, it is awesome. I love it! The only weird thing you notice when you bought macroeconomics of the same author. Few starting chapters of both books are same. I don't know why the author do so?🤔

This help a lot on my class for microecomics. I have second class that will start in the end of June. I could start reading this book to review. The best part of having a hard cover book is it does not run out of battery. The bad part is to heavy to carry in your pyrse.

I had a bad teacher, so the class was crappy. The rest of my class was failing as well, so I didn't feel bad about my grade being just above passing. The book came fine and I didn't see any issues, once I got to Chapter 11 I had seen a tear in the page. I'm trying to figure out how to tell Amazon so I don't get in crap from the person I rented this from. Other than that, it was a good book

This book was a requirement for my intro level microeconomics course. I would like to being by saying that this book is an incredibly easy read. It isn't extremely boring and dry and it isn't extremely fun with little important information. It contains all of the relevant information. The way the book delivers the information is astounding. You read through a block of text and then the book displays graphical examples with captions below to help interpret the graph. The online homework that I had to do along with the book made retaining the important information extremely easy. Economics comes relatively easy to me, but the addition of this great textbook made getting an A almost too easy. I didn't even show up to lecture about one third of the time because Dr. Mankiw does such a well job of explaining the material.
Pros:
Easy Read
Distilled Useful Information
Graphical Representation of Content
Cons:
Nothing
I would highly recommend this textbook. It is probably the most efficient and useful text for learning introductory microeconomics.

I had to use this book for my intro to microeconomics class, and it save my butt several times. To be completely honest I would have failed the class without this book.
It is very helpful and colorful, giving quick easy reads to an otherwise horrid topic. The book was written by Gregory Mankiw who has an incredible résumé being a Harvord University professor and an economic adviser to George W. Bush (political bias aside that is impressive). So the author is very good at what he does too.
The book goes through everyday scenarios that are very helpful and you can relate to them.
Overall this book is current, helpful, easy to read, and you actually understand micro. It is a sure life saver.
