I really love the CORE project and I'll certainly use the book as reference for my master's degree. However I do have one gripe with the app, which is that you can't adjust font size, style etc. according to your preference (as you can do with most .epub files). So while the app isn't perfect, it isn't fair to give it less than five stars (while hoping this "issue" is addressed!).

Thanks for the feedback, Fellipe. We'll look into that as a possibility for future releases. If you have any more feedback please share it with us at support@electricbookworks.com. If you'd prefer a font-adjustable epub file, you can download one here: www.core-econ.org/project/core-the-economy/

This is the best econ textbook I have ever read. It's just such a breath of fresh air. It strives for political balance without abandoning the insights of the discipline - makes you realise how unbalanced much undergraduate econ teaching is. My wish for the app would be the ability to bookmark, as the app often closes in between uses, and then I have to find my place again. Also, it's a shame that some of the links to external resources are paywalled.

Hi Mat, thanks for your review! The latest version of the app includes the option to add bookmarks. You can add a bookmark by selecting the text and clicking on the bookmark icon. All of your bookmarks will then be accessible via the 'Contents' menu.

Amazing book with good quality content. However, it sometimes takes a time to open pages or shuts down in the process.
