The Economics of Public Issues is a collection of brief, relevant readings that spark independent thinking and classroom discussions in principles of economics, public policy, and social issues courses.
The Fifteenth Edition offers seven provocative new topics, updates to ongoing policy debates, and new discussion questions. A flexible format and built-in correlation guide make this easy to integrate into a course without adding to the instructor’s preparation time.
