good introduction
This textbook works wonders for graduates students in field other than economics (law, management science). It gives the concepts; it is easy to read; it is concise. So it useful for those who need to understand the concepts. For economists, Business PhD and all those who need to build on microeconomic concepts, Kreps or MasColell-Whinston-Green textbooks should be REQUIRED reading. This book is just too cursory in treating game theory, social choice, and also general/partial equilibrium. And econometrics and CAPM chapters should be books of their own.

A Scary Book
Varian did well at his Intermediate Microeconomic Theory book but the Microeconomic Analysis is really a scaring product.I have studied Mathematical Economics by Alpha C. Chiang and also Vairan's Intermediate Micoeconomics but still I am not able to understand This book. I wish varian could be a little sympathetic towards a great number of readers like me who are not mathematics nerds and add some more pages to the book so that he does not have to consistently skip steps ( sometimes 3 steps in a go)while explaining the theory mathematically.In short there is a complete book missing between Varian's Intermediate and Analysis books.
Hope Varian reads my comments and produces an in between book for me and a lot of my weeping class fellows.

Great book, boring wording
Varian did a great job in explaining microeconomics. I just think that he could do a better job in word picking. Similar Products
