About This Item
New York: McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc, 1948. First edition reprint of the original 1948 first edition of this influential text by the father of modern economics. Octavo, original boards. Signed by the author on the title page, "Paul A. Samuelson MIT." Some light dampstaining to a few pages, very good in a fine dust jacket. With a new foreword by the author. Upon publication Samuelson's Economics: An Introductory Analysis immediately became the authority for the principles of economics courses. The book continues to be the standard-bearer for principles courses, and continues to be a clear, accurate, and interesting introduction to modern economics principles. The New York Times considered Samuelson to be the "foremost academic economist of the 20th century". It's fundamental impact on the opinions and approaches of today's most influential economists is extraordinary.
