Information is now a key issue in decision making in economics and business. Knowledge is a vital resource which confers strategic advantages on those that possess it, and provides the possibility of misuse and abuse with increasingly dangerous economic consequences. This new text is designed to take undergraduate and graduate students through the key issues and theoretical background to give an understanding of the impact of imperfect and asymmetric in an economic context. At each stage the text analyses and explains the information problem using clear models that set the outcome under imperfect information against that under full information. The Economics of Information is divided into 4 major sections, covering adverse selection problems under private information, the role of signaling mechanisms, moral hazard, and transaction mechanisms under imperfect information -- and reviews experimental studies that test the predictions of theory.
