As an educator at both the university and high school levels, he has learned how to make economics relevant to today's world and today's students. As Google's chief economist, Hal Varian, wrote, \"You don't need a brand-new economics. You just need to see the really cool stuff, the material they didn't get to when you studied economics.\" The \u003ci\u003eCartoon Introduction to Economics\u003c\/i\u003e is all about integrating the really cool stuff into an overview of the entire discipline of microeconomics, from decision trees to game trees to taxes and thinking at the margin. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRendering the cool stuff fun is the artistry of the illustrator and lauded graphic novelist Klein. Panel by panel, page by page, he puts comics into economics.
