Advanced Microeconomic Theory

Excellent book - Rigorous without being Rigidly Painful Varian, MWG (Mas-Collel, Whinstron, Green) are the two other commonly used books. MWG is of course, the most detailed book. But the notation can be dense and hence it takes time to get familiar with it. I found Jehle and Reny to have the most intuitive explanations and the notation take less effort and time to get used to. Also, the appendix is perhaps the best one out there. One review of the appendix will help some have an initial understanding of the most common mathematical techniques used for Microeconomics.

in good condition

This textbook is somehow both incredibly rigorous and amazingly simple

Very thorough treatment of PhD level microeconomics.

The book was well written, logical and relatively easy to read (for an advanced Microeconomic text.) The appendices were useful as a refresher and the proofs were sufficiently rigorous without being tedious.

It is just what you would a expect: a PhD level, theoretical book on microeconomics. The book often makes more sense than my professor teaching the course. The math proofs are easy enough to follow--tends to skip lots of algebraic steps, but what advanced math book doesn't--and the pages aren't covered so densely that you cannot focus.

book is laid out very well and written in an understandable manner, the book could be a little more rigorous though.

Great Book for students of Economics. To understand the content of the book however, you will need a very strong grounding in mathematics. If your Maths is not good, this is not the right book for you

Ottimo ottimo

Un texto que complementa y actualiza los conocimientos en teoría microeconómica que vienen en el "Microeconomic Theory" de Mas-Colell et. al. y en el "Microeconomic Analysis" de Varian. Un buen libro para estudiantes de posgrado.

As far as textbooks go, this one was far from the worst. And the "international edition" is of course what any self-respecting prospective economist would go for.

This book is widely used as grad school micro textbooks. It is a good complementary to MWG. I prefer the general equilibrium part of this book.

大学院レベルのミクロ経済学はいかに市場主体の意思決定や行動の規則を数学的に厳密に記述するか、という点に尽きるといっても過言ではない。この観点から評価するとＭＷＧは出版されてから１５年経ってもまだ最高のテキストで、本書はＭＷＧよりも記述内容を切り詰めているので「準上級」と評されることが多い。 なので、ＭＷＧより多少読みやすいかもしれないが、だからといって上級のミクロ理論が理解しやすくなるとは限らない、「枕」とか「凶器」といった愛称で呼ばれることも多いＭＷＧをひとまずは読まずに、数学的に記述されたミクロ理論の世界に親しめる、というのが本書の特長だといえる。 この本よりも内容を切り詰めた本としてはＶａｒｉａｎ（1992）があり、これら３冊の世界的標準に準ずる入門書としては塩沢他（2006）が比較的新しい。順番に読んでいってもいかなくても最終的にＭＷＧを目指すことにはなるだろうが、今年になって新改訂された本書を一読する価値はあると思われる。
