Welcome to the support Website for Samuelson/Nordhaus’ Economics, Eighteenth Edition. Samuelson’s text was first published in 1948, and it immediately became the authority for the principles of economics courses. The book continues to be the standard-bearer for principles courses, and this revision continues to be a clear, accurate, and interesting introduction to modern economics principles. Bill Nordhaus is now the primary author of this text, and he has revised the book to be as current and relevant as ever. For example, the book now includes coverage of the new tax laws on dividends, international outsourcing, deflation, NAIRU, and more.

It is our hope that this Website will provide teachers and students alike with tools to enhance their experiences in the course.
