Paul Solman, the Economics Correspondent for the Lehrer News Hour on PBS, has developed over 255 minutes of video to be used in principles-level economics courses. Solman gives the beginning student helpful comprehensive hints regarding core concepts. His explanations are highlighted by guest speakers including Nobel Laureates Paul Samuelson and Robert Solow. Topics are illustrated with student-oriented examples and a welcome dose of dry humor.
