Reader Reviews
This review is from: Mathematical Methods for Economics (The Addison-Wesley Series in Economics) (Hardcover)
The first year as a Ph.D. student in Economics is very hard, especially if you are coming directly from the undergraduate level. After reading very formal and pseudo-user friendly books such as Simon and Blume (1994) and Novshek (1993), when it comes to the practical stuff, you end up looking at Varian's (1992) appendix, using Silberberg (1990) and (of course!) Chiang's 1984 masterpiece. But, on the other hand, if you need a careful and very user-friendly explanation of topics such as continuous and discrete dynamic optimization as well as applications of the Envelope Theorem, I have not found a better book than Klein's Mathematical Methods.
