Advanced Microeconomic Theory 3rd Edition

Excellent book - Rigorous without being Rigidly PainfulVarian, MWG (Mas-Collel, Whinstron, Green) are the two other commonly used books.MWG is of course, the most detailed book. But the notation can be dense and hence it takes time to get familiar with it.I found Jehle and Reny to have the most intuitive explanations and the notation take less effort and time to get used to. Also, the appendix is perhaps the best one out there. One review of the appendix will help some have an initial understanding of the most common mathematical techniques used for Microeconomics.

It is just what you would a expect: a PhD level, theoretical book on microeconomics. The book often makes more sense than my professor teaching the course. The math proofs are easy enough to follow--tends to skip lots of algebraic steps, but what advanced math book doesn't--and the pages aren't covered so densely that you cannot focus.

This textbook is somehow both incredibly rigorous and amazingly simple

Great Book for students of Economics. To understand the content of the book however, you will need a very strong grounding in mathematics. If your Maths is not good, this is not the right book for you

The book was well written, logical and relatively easy to read (for an advanced Microeconomic text.) The appendices were useful as a refresher and the proofs were sufficiently rigorous without being tedious.

A very good Microeconomics text for a first year graduate student.

Very good book. I am satisfect with book because he have all maters that I need to learn microeconomics theory.

Compared to my other FT Prentice Hall textbooks, this is by far the worst. The pages are completely matte and the print is faint and fuzzy. It almost looks like a counterfeit printing. There isn't a speck of color to be seen, even on headings or in the graphs/figures. There's no reason this book should cost as much as it does.
