Chapter dedicated to game theory and strategic thinking: Given the increasing importance of game theory in economic analysis, an introductory discussion on the topic has been moved to its own chapter (Chapter 14: Game Theory, Strategic Thinking, and Behavioral Economics). The game theory presentation is at a principles-appropriate level, giving students a flavor of the game theory approach and faculty an opening to go beyond what's presented in the book.
Fully updated: To keep the text as relevant as possible, the facts, figures, and end-of-chapter questions have all been updated with the latest data and examples. Additionally, discussions have been revised to match current interests in the profession, keeping up with the evolution of the economy and economics.
