Hal R. Varian's Books

As one of the first books to distill the economics of information and networks into practical business strategies, this is a guide to the winning moves that can help business leaders--from writers, lawyers and finance professional to executives in the entertainment, publishing and hardware and software industries-- navigate successfully through the information economy.

Hal Varian, in the course of a long and distinguished career, has made a seminal contribution to many branches of economics. His pathbreaking work on the development of economic theory, finance, industrial organization and econometrics is represented in this important new collection of key articles published over the last twenty years.

This collection of articles is edited by Hal Varian, Dean of the School of Information Management and Systems, University of California, Berkeley. It provides a high quality and practical selection of contributed articles that impart the expertise of an international contingent of Mathematica users from the economic, financial, investments, quantitative business and operations research communities.

The Economics of Information Technology is a concise and accessible review of some of the important economic factors affecting information technology industries. These industries are characterized by high fixed costs and low marginal costs of production, large switching costs for users, and strong network effects. These factors combine to produce some unique behavior. The book consists of two parts. In the first part, Professor Varian outlines the basic economics of these industries. In the second part, Professors Farrell and Shapiro describe the impact of these factors on competition policy. The clarity of the analysis and exposition makes this an ideal introduction for undergraduate and graduate students in economics, business strategy, law and related areas.
