This textbook is guided by the author’s contagious belief that at no other time has it been so important to know the facts, to distinguish facts from falsehoods, and to be thinking clearly about problem, policy, and politics. Gruber covers the fundamentals of public finance with an emphasis on responses to Covid-19, highlighting the variety of decisions that the government had to make and the controversies they engendered. Based on rigorous theory and cutting edge empirical evidence students are given policy oriented applications to issues relevant to their everyday lives.
