How to Use this Textbook

This textbook is primarily designed to be used by students taking the Economics of Information class at the Faculty of Business Administration in Foreign Languages at the Bucharest University of Economic Studies. The textbook provides outlines of each lecture, examples, and links to additional reading materials and should be used in conjunction with the lectures. It is not meant to replace in-class participation and will make most sense for those students who take part in all lectures and group work.

Students should take note of the fact that some reading materials in the Further Reading sections are not to be taken at face value. A few articles which include logical fallacies have been included in order to better describe the range of opinions which exist regarding some topics. Critical thinking is essential when dealing with the information that we are presented.

Students and professors at other universities are welcome to use the materials. Any interesting examples or constructive feedback which may help improve future editions of the textbook are more than welcome and will be credited to the contributors if they are included.
