Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Many instructors of microeconomic theory have been waiting for a text that provides balanced and in-depth analysis of the essentials of microeconomics. Masterfully combining the results of years of teaching microeconomics at Harvard University, Andreu Mas-Colell, Michael Whinston, and Jerry Green have filled that conspicuous vacancy with their groundbreaking text, Microeconomic Theory.
The authors set out to create a solid organizational foundation upon which to build the effective teaching tool for microeconomic theory. The result presents unprecedented depth of coverage in all the essential topics, while allowing professors to 'tailor-make' their course to suit personal priorities and style. Topics such as noncooperative game theory, information economics, mechanism design, and general equilibrium under uncertainty receive the attention that reflects their stature within the discipline. The authors devote an entire section to game theory alone, making it 'free-standing' to allow instructors to return to it throughout the course when convenient. Discusion is clear, accessible, and engaging, enabling the student to gradually acquire confidence as well as proficiency. Extensive exercises within each chapter help students to hone their skills, while the text's appendix of terms, fully cross-referenced throughout the previous five sections, offers an accessible guide to the subject matter's terminology. Teachers of microeconomics need no longer rely upon scattered lecture notes to supplement their textbooks. Deftly written by three of the field's most influential scholars, Microeconomic Theory brings the readability, comprehensiveness, and versatility to the first-year graduate classroom that has long been missing.

Mas-Colell is a great text to have on the shelf of any graduate student of econcomics. I am working on my Phd, and I refer to it whenever I need to establish a firm understanding of any Microeconomic theory.

This book is aimed at economics grad students.
Usually economics grad students are guys who are trying too hard to be accepted by an established "academic community". Since most of them lack self-esteem, real world experience and confidence, they must find a way to show the world how smart and special they are. So those people accept being fed such a nonsense like this material.
Dont be fooled. The pseudo-scientific kind of math this book adopts does not add to real world analysis or understanding of a single economic problem. Its all "math rhetoric" to impress the layman.
The economics that really matters is as real as sex. If you have done it, you know what it is, even if you do not fully understand the captions of a pornographic book written in ancient greek. But please dont tell that to an econ grad student. They dont know what sex is.

This is not only a text book but also a very sourceful handbook of microeconomics. It is worth owning all your lifetime. Even one day when, we are old, we at least could see all we knew about the microeconomic world at that time.
