Alternative Texts

  1. Modern Industrial Organization, Carlton and Perloff, first, second, or third edition.
  2. Industrial Organization, Louis Cabral
  3. Industrial Organzation, Waldman and Jensen
  4. Microeconomics Demystified, Craig A. Depken, II

I do not recommend paying monopoly prices for your textbooks. The second or third edition of the Carlton and Perloff text will serve just fine for this course. You should be able to find a cheap used copy on Amazon.com or E-bay or Half.com.
