He has been chair of the AEA Committee on Electronic Publishing, a member of the AEA Committee on Economic Education, and is currently the associate editor for content of the Journal of Economic Education. 
He is married to a pediatrician, Patrice. In their spare time, the Colanders designed and built an oak post-and-beam house on a ridge overlooking the Green Mountains to the east and the Adirondacks to the west. The house is located on the site of a former drive-in movie theater. (They replaced the speaker poles with fruit trees and used the I-beams from the screen as support for the second story of the carriage house and the garage.) They now live in both Florida and Vermont.\nCharlene holds B.A. and M.A. degrees from Simon Fraser University, and is a provincially certified teacher with a British Columbia Professional Teaching Certificate. She has written several economics course manuals, and designed and delivered distance education courses. Charlene is the co-author of several academic papers, and a recipient of an award for excellence in teaching. She currently teaches various introductory and advanced economics courses to (very bright) students in the Financial Management and Advanced Studies in Business programs in the School of Business at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Burnaby, B.C. Previously, Charlene worked as an economist with Bell Canada where she analyzed industrial strategy and competition policy. She was also a member of a collaborative research team at the Centre for Trade Policy and Law in Ottawa, which quantified the effects of North American free trade on Canadian manufacturing industries, and assessed the significance of international technology transfers between Canadian and U.S. high tech firms. Besides her interest in Canadian industrial policy and international trade, Charlene has a wide range of other fascinations: photography, art, architecture, wine, fitness, and the stock market. However, Charlene has discovered that her recreational activities are – most unfortunately – subject to an irascible and unsympathetic budget constraint.\nWritten in a very student oriented writing style, Colander, Rockerbie, Richter Macroeconomics, engages the student with interesting “stories” and emphasizes the intellectual and historical context to which economic models are applied. Students today are more interested in policy issues and the authors present the basics of economic reasoning as it relates to policy questions. The author’s primary goal is to instill students with “economic sensibility” and uses the integration of policy discussion and thought provoking economic stories to achieve this result.

Written in an informal colloquial style, this student-friendly Principles of Microeconomics textbook does not sacrifice intellectual depth in its quest for accessibility. The author’s primary concern is to instill “economic sensibility” in the student. Colander emphasizes the intellectual and historical context to which the economic models are applied. This new edition offers improvements to this established and respected text including special Questions from Alternate Perspectives end-of-chapter questions that facilitate class discussion of differing school of thought in the discipline, and access to over 250 minutes of new videos from Paul Solman of the Lehrer NewsHour.

Microeconomics

Economics is renowned for its conversational writing style, and for treating standard economic concepts as tools for making judgments as opposed to inflexible rules. This latest edition features updated international analysis along with more in-depth coverage of increasingly vital outsourcing issues than any other principles text. A new discussion of behavioral economics includes an examination of the work of Richard Thaler, the ultimatum game, and the status quo bias.

The Fourth Edition represents the most comprehensive revision to date, systematically covering modern economic theory. Aided by examples, illustrations and step-by-step explanations, it provides a clear connection between theory and policy. Highlighting aggregate supply and aggregate demand, the Fourth Edition features new sections on current issues in unemployment, inflation, growth, productivity, and fiscal and monetary policy. More so than in other texts, it provides a complete selection of applied micro topics, including chapters on agriculture, natural resources, government regulation, politics and economics. The many special features that enhance the text include: ``key concepts,'' ``key terms'' and ``key-point summaries;'' running glossaries; many charts, graphs and tables; and end-of-chapter problems.

This work aims to instil "economic sensibility" in the student. It emphasizes the intellectual and historical context to which the economic models are applied. After the models are presented, the text discusses how economists actually use these models in policy.
