The course text, the lectures and the excercises

The course text, Microeconomics: People are Different John D Hey was published in 2003 by McGraw-Hill (ISBN13: 9780077103644, ISBN10: 0077103645, 600pp £14.99). However, I have just (on the 14th of September 2009) discovered to my horror that the book at McGraw-Hill went out of print in December 2008 and they never told me. Last year's students may have copies. I will e-mail them. You can buy a copy at Amazon, but they have very few copies left. You could also go to AbeBooks.Com. Because of this, and because of the fact that McGraw-Hill are going to charge an exhorbitant price to print off extra copies, I have decided to put the book on the site. In the meantime, if you speak Italian, you can always buy the Italian version of the text: Microeconomia: People are Different by John D Hey and Carmelo Petraglia, (isbn 88-548-0999-4, 688 pag., 32,00 euro), which was published on the 18th of March 2007 by Aracne Editrice. In the first edition there was not an index. There were also a number of misprints. In the second edition there were some misprints.

The Lectures and the Exercises of the course are available online.
