Features: This is the only textbook that reflects the revolution in economic thought over the past 20 plus years. As a participant and leader in the field of economics, Stiglitz brought microeconomics out of the traditional "market-free" habitat and into the real world of imperfect markets. He broke away from traditional models and created the most perfect unity of microeconomics and macroeconomics. The Chinese edition of this book has been a sensation in China since its release in 1997, with over 100,000 copies sold. The upcoming second edition is sure to generate even greater interest among Chinese readers. Stiglitz is an economist who focuses on reality, and his analysis of the latest developments in world and U.S. economic events in the new edition will give us fresh insights into many issues. Stiglitz is also a friend of the Chinese people, and he has specially written a chapter on China's economic reforms for the new Chinese edition, which Chinese readers are bound to find highly valuable.
