Literally best econ textbooks to be created

Shame they're so expensive for a real copy, I feel bad for torrenting it.

Nigger they're freshman survey economics books
If you think they're "the best" you haven't read anything but survey books

And no book needs eleven editions. Anything that does that is no longer meant as a learning tool, it's meant as a product.

75% of the people who visit this board are undergrads and pseuds who are, unironically, communists. They will use
> commumeme arrows
to show how hard they disagree with you on your choice of economic texts and that Marx should be on that list alongwith some autistic Marxist Kike or Parisian.

Also notice how they have nothing to say about your choice of books in other sections. It's revealing. How much they think they know about the world, and how little they actually do.

Notice this further. I don't frequent /pol/.

But these people love to build strawmen, they love creating caricatures that their kike professors have taught them to tear down. Since I expressed an opinion that can be (doesn't have to be) one professed by someone on /pol/, I MUST be a /pol/er (?). It is a pathetic show, a revelation, of their weakness, and an excellent demonstration of the outer limits of their mental acuity.

Says the guy who accused 3/4s of a board of being undergrad pseuds who love Marx based on the fact that a whole two posts (!!) criticized choices in the econ section

No, you imbecile. Maybe you should browse more threads, and oftener to see for yourself what the dominant political and economic viewpoints on this board are.

This idiotic retort has been used numerous times over by your kind.

For economics? Well Blanchard is good for Macro, I'd suggest it because it is very simple for babbies/undergrads and it tries very, very hard to bring up relevant case studies so you aren't just lost in theory (a common attitude for people only interested in acing exams, or people who could give a damn about anything except entertaining models that are challenging to learn).

Debraj Ray's book for Dev. Econ is pretty good for the same reasons.

For Micro maybe Pyndick.

Generally, google is your friend. Search for undergrad econ courses and see what books they use, follow those and you should be fine.

If you have questions sadly econs are not so active on the internet at the amateur level.

Economics stackexchange is a little lame, inactive and poorly educated, other than that econjobrumors.com is the /sci/ for econgrads (anonymous message board) that has a lot of trolling but, just like /sci/, if you know how to hurt their egos and can ask sensible questions that challenge their intelligence you can probably use the bright minds on there.

/sci/ itself is probably not too useful for econ but meh.
>>
>>8205294
Oh yeah, almost forgot, you won't need this soo much for undergrad econ but Chiang's book on math econ is a must if you want to stand a chance at understanding anything spewed at the grad level (I'm assuming you are as shiet at mathematics as the average /lit/ poster)
