Features: This Economics Handbook was designated by the National Press and Publication Administration as a "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" national key book. I was informed that the copyright fee for the Chinese translation of this Economics Handbook reached as much as 2 million yuan. I also deeply understand that the numerous scholars who participated in the translation of the entire Economics Handbook are all experts and institutions with profound knowledge in their respective fields. It can be seen that the massive investment of funds and manpower for this Economics Handbook is rare in China's academic and publishing circles. Nevertheless, compared to the potential social benefits it may bring, the Chinese translation of the Economics Handbook is still worth the effort and is also something to be grateful for. This Economics Handbook is a handbook-style systematic work, aimed at providing authoritative sources, references, and reading materials for professional researchers and graduate students with high academic degrees. Each volume in this systematic handbook comprehensively summarizes the cutting-edge developments in every branch of economics, divided into chapters based on content, with contributions from leading scholars in the relevant fields of each branch. The scope of the summaries not only includes recognized results but also covers the more recent developments represented by professional journals and exploratory literature. Although each chapter contains some original data, the primary purpose of each chapter is to provide comprehensive and easily understandable summaries. This Economics Handbook not only provides a useful reference for the libraries of professionals but also serves as a potential reading material for advanced courses in economics for graduate students.
