4.0 out of 5 stars Good introductory book
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2014
Verified Purchase
Very good text as an introduction to policy analysis. I know little about economics (micro & macro), but this book cover basics of economics using one chapter in the beginning, and it helps me a lot (maybe this is nothing special in this type of text...anyway). It looks little wordy, and would be great if I could find more case study. Overall, I recommend this book.

Purchased this book for an introductory microeconomics class and found the material a bit dense compared to the textbook. As a result, I did not refer to it much. The physical condition of the book when I received it was excellent though.

4.0 out of 5 stars The PP Bible
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2013
Verified Purchase
This is a very good, strong theoretical book. This is the bible of public policy that everyone who works with policy should have close by for a reference book. Very dense and hard to get through at times, but other times the exact opposite. Always beneficial though.

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2020

This textbook is riddled with grammatical errors that distract me from understanding the concepts. Also, this book has a tendency to over explain things without actually explaining them - a sure way to confused college students.
