The highly engaging introduction to thinking like an economist,
updated for a new generation of readers. When economists wrestle
with any social issue—be it unemployment, inflation, healthcare,
or crime and punishment—they do so impersonally. The big question
for them is: what are the costs and benefits, or trade-offs, of the
solutions to such matters? These trade-offs constitute the core of
how economists see the world—and make the policies that govern
it. Trade-Offs is an introduction to the economic approach of
analyzing controversial policy issues. A useful introduction to the
various factors that inform public opinion and policymaking,
Trade-Offs is composed of case studies on topics drawn from across
contemporary law and society. Intellectually stimulating yet
accessible and entertaining, Trade-Offs will be appreciated by
students of economics, public policy, health administration,
political science, and law, as well as by anyone following current
social policy debates.
