Understand the basic knowledge of economics.

First of all, I want to tell you that economics is a very complicated subject, which can't be mastered in one or two books. It needs strong logical thinking and numerical talent, and needs to be thoroughly mastered in many aspects. But if you are just getting started, you can take a look at western macro-microeconomics and learn the basics! Then I recommend two introductory books to you: Economics of Milk Coke and Principles of Economics by Man Kun. The latter, in particular, is definitely an encyclopedia in economics books. The knowledge and language in the book is not profound and easy to understand, but it covers almost all the knowledge in the field of economics. The former can increase your interest in studying economics. 1. Introductory textbook: Economics Translation Series (NPC Edition) 1, Principles of Economics (Man Kun) Man Kun, Harvard high flyers, belongs to the neoclassical Keynesian school, and his research scope focuses on macroeconomic analysis. This book is written for freshmen, and its main features are simple words, simple reasoning and interesting language. The interface is quite friendly, citing a large number of cases and newspaper abstracts, which is extremely close to life, such as why the Federal Reserve exists, how it works, and how Greenspan cuts interest rates to deal with the economic downturn. Almost no mathematics is used in the book, and I summed up the "10 Principles of Economics" for beginners, which is extremely convenient for people who have never been exposed to economics at all. By studying this book, you can understand the basic ideas of economics and the basic principles commonly used to look at economic phenomena in life. It can be seen that the role and interest of economics far exceed the imagination of ordinary people. Recommended entries are preferred to read. At present, a professor in China has compiled a textbook of Western Economics based on this book, and the words "10 principles of economics" appear in the book, which can be seen at a glance as plagiarism. 2. Samuelson's Economics Samuelson, a representative of the neoclassical comprehensive school, 1970 became the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Economics. The research scope spans many fields such as economics, statistics, mathematics, etc., and has unique opinions on political economics, departmental economics and technical economics. At present, the analytical framework and methods used in various economics textbooks mostly adopt the theoretical framework of "Neoclassical Comprehensive School" which is developed from his microeconomic analysis 1947 and combines Keynesianism with traditional microeconomics. He has always been keen on applying mathematical tools to the analysis of static equilibrium and dynamic process, and studying economy by physical and mathematical reasoning methods. At present, the pure mathematics of economics is very popular, which is the initiator. Economics was first published in early 1948 by McGraw-Hiltu Company. Now it has been published in version 16, which is popular all over the world. In 1950s, Professor Gao Hongye translated it according to the English version 10, which was published by the Commercial Press on 198 1. Market Edition 16 was co-authored with nordhaus and translated by Professor Xiao Shen, and published in Macroeconomics and Microeconomics respectively. This book is magnificent in structure and huge in length. It can be described as profound. Economic insight that has infiltrated Lao Sa for decades. Between the lines, in a few words, the meaning of each sentence. Among them, "warm heart, calm" and "correlation is not necessarily causal" can be described as the Laozi of economics. After reading this book, we can understand the position and analytical framework of the issues discussed in economics in the economic system and have a complete understanding framework of economics. The knowledge is complex and systematic, which is suitable for further study in the future. The deeper you learn, the more you know the importance of this framework. Although there are still faults in the micro-foundation of macroeconomics, this framework is good. The English version of this book is published by domestic organic publishing house. I suggest reading the English version directly. 3. Stiglitz's economics and a series of supplementary textbooks. Stiglitz has made great achievements in information economics, and this book can be used as a supplement to the first two books. The economic contents of the first two are mainly based on price theory and marginal analysis, excluding asymmetric information economics and uncertainty analysis. Stiglitz's economics can fill the gaps in the first two. & lt Although the three authors have different policy tendencies, the textbooks reflect a little more Keynesian characteristics. Generally speaking, the teaching materials are objective and fair. It is very suitable to be an introductory textbook. & gt4. Economics, principles, problems and policies, economic principles and problems, economic cases, economic essays, economic paradoxes, economics of social problems, etc. This kind of books is characterized by asking questions first, then discussing principles, mainly aiming at social common problems and gradually explaining principles. Most of them are good in level and content, but lack of system and framework, which is suitable for economists who know a little about economics to study. 5. Textbooks of Western Economics compiled by domestic teachers themselves: At present, textbooks directly titled "Western Economics" or "Principles of Economics" compiled by domestic universities are all introductory textbooks. Such as, Li Yining, Liang, Zhu Xi, Yin Bocheng, Si Chunlin, etc. Among them, Gao Hongye, written by the Ministry of Education of People's Republic of China (PRC), is the most authoritative work. It is especially suitable for participating in various domestic economic examination bibliographies. Recommended reading! Description: 1. The more basic the textbook, the more simple it needs to be. Only by combining complex and abstract truth with real life can we speak thoroughly and arouse the interest of beginners. Foreign textbooks form a competitive market, which is a multipolar and brilliant work. The compilation of teaching materials also fully considers the convenience of students' learning. For example, Man Kun's textbooks are famous for having no mathematical formulas at all, or they are updated quickly to absorb new knowledge in time, such as adding information asymmetry to Stiglitz's economics. Textbooks written by people with low hands are naturally eliminated by the market. Therefore, most of the basic textbooks on the market are written by experts. 2. Domestic teaching materials. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the government has agreed to translate and publish the classical school part of the Business Series, which was at the initial stage 100 years ago, as a negative textbook for Marx's criticism. Before 1980s, the achievements of foreign economics research and study in the past 50 years were invisible to China people. In the late 1980s, Mr. Zou Zhizhuang advocated western economics, and textbooks similar to "Western Economics" gradually appeared in China. According to economics, there are low, medium and high grades. Advanced refers to the controversy over the use of mathematical tools and the elaboration of opinions. More importantly, it is not to say that this knowledge is superior. Just as advanced mathematics is not necessarily higher than elementary mathematics. The more advanced, the more differences, and the more rigorous the pursuit of mathematical logic, but not as practical as the low level. Elementary introductory textbooks are generally aimed at beginners, so most of them cite cases and phenomena, explain them in words, and occasionally insert two-dimensional patterns. Advanced textbooks pay attention to mathematical logic, but two-dimensional patterns and words have been difficult to express and solve the explained problems, so mathematical proofs or algebraic equations are often used, mixed with modern mathematical tools. Intermediate textbooks are in the middle, and the definition is very vague. The difficulty and span of teaching materials are different.
