# Mankiw’s Ten Principles of Economics Mankiw’s Ten Principles of Economics, Translated for the Uninitiated by Yoram Bauman 1 (revised June 12, 2002) The cornerstone of Harvard professor N. Gregory Mankiw’s introductory economics textbook, Principles of Economics, is a synthesis of economic thought into Ten Principles of Economics (listed in the first table below). A quick perusal of these will likely affirm the reader’s suspicions that synthesizing economic thought into Ten Principles is no easy task, and may even lead the reader to suspect that the subtlety and concision required are not to be found in the pen of N. Gregory Mankiw. --- # References [[classical economics]] ![[Mankiw by Yoram Bauman.pdf]]
