Title overview

As the world shifts to a greater reliance on digital media, it is appropriate that this text evolves as well. This ninth edition is the first fully digital version of Macroeconomics. Instructors and students will find that, although the medium has changed, the content is fully consistent with prior editions.

This ISBN is for the Pearson eText and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplement.

 

Demonstrating a balanced treatment of both classical and Keynesian economics, Macroeconomics presents macroeconomic theory in a big-picture way. Comprehensive coverage makes it easy for instructors to align chapters to fit their own syllabi, and the text helps instructors prepare students to analyze real macroeconomic data used by policy makers and researchers. This text uses a unified approach based on a single economics model that provides students with a clear understanding of macroeconomics and its classical and Keynesian assumptions. 

The ninth Canadian edition tightens its focus on the critical issues of macroeconomics, and introduces changes to better fit with how instructors teach intermediate macroeconomics.
