Economics textbook by Samuelson and Nordhaus
Paul A. Samuelson’s book was first published in 1948, and it became straightaway the authority for the principles of economics courses. The Economics textbook continues to be the standard-bearer for principles courses, and this nineteenth edition continues to be a clear, precise and interesting introduction to modern economics principles. William D. Nordhaus is now the primary author of this text, and he has revised the text to be as current and relevant as ever.

Adam Smith
As an economics student or economist you should have at some stage of your career read at least a few passages of Adam Smith’s famous Wealth of Nations book. As a short reminder, Adam Smith was a Scottish classical economist and philiosopher who was born in Edinburugh in the 18th century and considered as the father of modern liberal economy. He his notably known for his fundamental work An inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations which has been published in 1776 and since then used as a reference in modern economics. If you haven’t read a some passages yet, I urge you to read the Wealth of Nations book online on bibliomania.
