Overview

Macroeconomics presents an integrated, global view of the subject, and highlights the connections between goods-, financial-, and labor-markets worldwide. A core section focuses on short-, medium-, and long-run markets while two extensions offer more in-depth coverage of the issues at hand.

From the economic crisis of the late 2000s, to growth in China, the 8th Edition helps you make sense of current events and those that may unfold in the future. The text has been updated to convey the life of macroeconomics today, and help you employ and develop your analytical and evaluative skills.
