5.0 out of 5 stars
Required Book for taking comprehinsive exams.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Structure of Economics: A Mathematical Analysis (Hardcover)
Understanding this book assures you a passing grade on your Microeconomics preliminary exam. Excellent presentation that far surpasses the eloquence of even Varian's Microeconomic Analysis. Students of economics should get this book early on and refer to it often as they progress through their graduate degree.

This review is from: The Structure of Economics: A Mathematical Analysis (Hardcover)
I loved this book, but it's hard to classify. It is somewhere between a microeconomics and a mathematical economics text. There's also has a nice introduction on the methodology of economics. If your objective is a deeper understanding of microeconomics but Mas-Collel's "Microeconomic Theory" is too daunting, this book could be just right.

very rigorous and very difficult,

This review is from: The Structure of Economics: A Mathematical Analysis (Hardcover)
i used this book in an upper level undergraduate course in advanced microeconomic analysis whose curriculum (thankfully) relied mostly on class notes rather than this textbook. although i am now working on a masters degree in statistics and using highly technical textbooks in my studies, let me tell you that 'the structure of economics' still takes the cake for the most difficult textbook i've ever used (up until now, anyway; my stochastic processes course next semester might use a textbook more difficult than this one). i honestly couldn't understand enough of it to definitively decide whether the book is really good or not, but based on what i could understand, it seems like an excellent book, albeit, one that will be accessible only to people who think on a higher plane with regards to advanced microeconomic principles. if you decide to buy this book, please realize that you are not going to breeze through this book like you might breeze through a book that is more on the level of walter nicholson's 'microeconomic theory' (an excellent intermediate level classic on microeconomics). you could easily spend 20 minutes reading one or two pages in 'the structure of economics' and still not be able to entirely grasp what you've read. basically, this is a book that separates the men from the boys with the criteria being whether one can understand it or not. also, i think that the edition pictured above with the black cover is a pretty old one. i bought my copy last year and i believe it was a later edition although i'm not sure which one. the cover on my book has a similar design, but the cover is green, white and blue.
