前言

　　In every chapter of this new edition, our focus remains on the modem coreof its respective area. We continue to believe that this approach enablesthe careful reader to build a deep understanding of the principal pillars ofmodem microeconomics and to see the connections among them. We aregrateful that so many students and colleagues seem to agree.　　There are exercises at the end of every chapter, and working throughas many of these as possible is the surest way to master the material. Hintsand answers for selected exercises are provided at the end of the book,along with lists of theorems and definitions appearing in the text. We alsoplan to maintain a Readers Forum on the web, where readers can exchangesolutions to exercises in the text. The Readers Forum can be reached athttp ://alfred. vassar.edu.　　In preparing this new edition, we have taken the opportunity to makeone major structural change. As more and more students enter graduateprograms better prepared in mathematics, we believed we could safelymove the pure mathematics to an appendix. There, it will still be availablefor those who want a refresher or for those who need to fill a gap in theirpreparation, but it will not stand in the way of instructors who feel theirstudents are prepared to jump right into microeconomic theory from dayone. The two full chapters of the Mathematical Appendix still providestudents with a lengthy and largely self-contained development of the settheory, real analysis, topology, calculus, and modem optimization theory,which are indispensable in modem microeconomics. The exposition isformal but presumes nothing more than a good grounding in single-variablecalculus and simple linear algebra as a starting point. We suggest that evenstudents who are very well-prepared in mathematics browse both chaptersof the appendix early on. That way, if and when some review or referenceis needed, the reader will have a sense of how that material is organized.

章节摘录

　　Theorem 1.1 is very important. It frees us to represent preferences either in terms ofthe primitive set-theoretic preference relation or in terms of a numerical representation, acontinuous utility function. But this utility representation is never unique. If some func-tion u represents a consumers preferences, then so too will the function v = u + 5, or thefunction v = u3, because each of these functions ranks bundles the same way u does. Thisis an important point about utility functions that must be grasped. If all we require of thepreference relation is that it order the bundles in the consumption set, and if all we requireof a utility function representing those preferences is that it reflect that ordering of bundlesby the ordering of numbers it assigns to them, then any other function that assigns numbersto bundles in the same order as u does will also represent that preference relation and willitself be just as good a utility function as u.　　This is known by several different names in the literature. People sometimes saythe utility function is invariant to positive monotonic transforms or sometimes they saythat the utility function is unique up to a positive monotonic transform. Either way, themeaning is this: If all we require of the preference relation is that rankings between bun-dles be meaningful, then all any utility function representing that relation is capable ofconveying to us is ordinal information: no more and no less. If we know that one func-tion properly conveys the ordering of bundles, then any transform of that function thatpreserves that ordering of bundles will perform all the duties of a utility function justas well.　　Seeing the representation issue in proper perspective thus frees us and restrains us.If we have a function u that represents some consumers preferences, it frees us to trans-form u into other, perhaps more convenient or easily manipulated forms, as long as thetransformation we choose is order-preserving. At the same time, we are restrained by theexplicit warning here that no significance whatsoever can be attached to the actual numbersassigned by a given utility function to particular bundles——only to the ordering of thosenumbers.4 This conclusion, though simple to demonstrate, is nonetheless important enoughto warrant being stated formally. The proof is left as an exercise.
