Dr. Heyne was an outstanding professor. In fact, the most memorable and influential of my college "career." You will understand from reading his books how brilliant he was.

This book makes the complex subject of economics very easy to understand, and will cause you to think very differently about social issues. Paul Heyne is also one of the best teachers I've ever had.

If you need a textbook on Economic, and you do not know the theory, you HAVE to read it before you get started. It's also very usefull for businessmen. I've read it in Russian

The late Paul Heyne was one of this century's finest economics educators. His ECONOMIC WAY OF THINKING is justifiably renowned for being crystal clear, and his classroom instruction is famous.

This short book, published posthumously, is the best 100-page-or-less introduction to economics and the economic way of thinking that I've ever read. Possessing a poet's economy and skill with words, Heyne conveys not only the basic tenents of modern economics, but he goes a long way toward explaining their historical origins.

The reader also sees on display in this monograph Paul Heyne's truly deep insight to economics and its subject matter. Indeed, to explain economics as clearly, consisely, and beautifully as Heyne does requires a wisdom so profound that few economists ever come close to possessing it and the understanding that it makes possible. Paul Heyne possessed such wisdom and understanding in abundance.

Even professional economists will gain by reading this book -- despite its being accessible to almost any reader.
