I needed to buy this book for a microeconomics class at my college. The book, like many textbooks, is quite boring and does not use examples that students our age can relate to. Being based on economics, I think it would have been in the best interest of these authors to think about who they were marketing this book to before writing it. I don't have much fun reading this book and I am distracted at times, but all in all, it gets the points across if you have the patience to actually read the book.
