ISBN 160049000X by R. Preston McAfee Yahoo! Research In 2006, I produced Introduction to Economic Analysis, a free, open sourced, creative-commons licensed textbook spanning introductory and intermediate microeconomics. There were few adoptions. That there were several high profile adoptions like NYU and Harvard convinced me that the lack of adoptions was not due to the material itself, or even my exposition of the material, but instead two factors. First, the book isn't traditional: it is aimed to be more like economists actually practice economics, analyzing interesting issues with models and modicum of data. Second, there were no supplmental materials. In 2007 I went to work for Yahoo! and ceased teaching. At this point progress on the project totally stalled. To address the lack of supplemental materials and to keep progress on the creation of low cost, high quality materials, I enlisted Tracy Lewis of the Fuqua School of Business at Duke University, to co-author a new text built on IEA, and joined with Flat World Knowledge. Flatworld has an "online free, modestly-priced printed" creativecommons model. The Flatworld version is a substantial rewrite. The material is reordered and the 7 substantive chapters broken into 20 more manageable chapters. The material is rewritten to make it more accessible to a standard intermediate audience. There were lots of bug-fixes. Professors considering the text should choose the Flatworld version. Mathematically adept independent readers, especially engineers, wishing to learn about economics may prefer the 2006 version.
