商品描述

  • The cutting-edge 10th edition offers an intriguing view into public policy, addressing issues that will confront the United States and other nations throughout the new millennium. It thoroughly addresses current issues in public finance and taxation, including indifference curve analysis, producer and consumer surplus, and tax incidence.
  • Professor Hyman presents critical concepts in the context of real-world, right-now issues. Unlike other texts which focus primarily on policy issues, Dr. Hyman emphasizes the economic theory of public goods and how best to provide them and then builds in applications to illustrate the main economics points. The latest edition covers timely topics such as national defense and homeland security, health care, pollution rights, Social Security reform, and federal tax reform.
  • Offering a solid economics-oriented approach to public finance and public policy, Hyman’s PUBLIC FINANCE equips students with a balanced view of both the revenue and expenditure sides of taxes and public goods -- giving them the full story of how economics affect public policy issues.
  • PUBLIC FINANCE is packed with current, real-world examples and issues that make reading interesting and promote lively student discussion and debate. Captivating Public Policy Perspectives address current issues in the news and how these issues will impact public finance now and in the future. In addition, Global Perspectives boxes compare different taxing and public goods delivery systems, giving students an excellent overview of global markets.
  • The text offers many study tools to help readers review material and focus on key concepts, including Learning Objectives, Student Checkpoints to ensure understanding, Chapter Summaries, Looking Forward (a section that highlights upcoming topics), Key Concepts, Review Questions, end-of-chapter Problems, Internet Resources, and Additional Readings.
