Economic Concepts for the Social Sciences

Economic Concepts for the Social Sciences

Editorial Reviews
Review
"Sandler provides a technical yet readable guide for noneconomists, although the stylized stories receive more space than the real world applications.... Sandler's approach is balanced, including a less-than-optimistic appraisal of the future impact of economic theory in which he specializes." Choice
