Summary
Decoding the Matrix: A Rebel’s Guide to Microeconomics
Mainstream textbooks present economics as an objective science, free from value judgements. The Microeconomics Anti-Textbook demonstrates this to be a myth – one which serves to make such textbooks not only off-puttingly bland, but also dangerously misleading in their justification of the status quo and neglect of alternatives.

Critics Review
Rod Hill and Tony Myatt do an excellent job of clearly explaining the problems with how Economics 101 is usually taught while showing how additional insights—overlooked in first-year textbooks—provide a much richer account of how the economy operates. The Microeconomics Anti-Textbook is a valuable resource not only for students but also for anyone who wants to understand both the power and the limits of economic analysis. * James Kwak, Jesse Root Professor of Law, University of Connecticut, USA *The Microeconomics Anti-Textbook: A Critical Thinker’s Guide should be required reading for everyone who has ever read an economics textbook. With clarity, honesty and passion, it demolishes the myth that standard economics texts are unbiased, neutral guides to the world around us. Reading the Anti-Textbook won’t just make you a better economist, but a better person too. * Jonathan Aldred, Emmanuel College, University of Cambridge, UK *
