Macroeconomics (International Edition)

Macroeconomics is the study of the fluctuations in the cycles of income and economic growth, unemployment, production and income distribution, inflation, and financial markets. Simply put, it is the study of aggregate supply and demand.

- ‘Work It Out Tutorials’ guide students through the process of applying economic analysis to solve a problem similar to the end-of- chapter problems found in the text. Choice-specific feedback and video explanations provide students with interactive assistance for each step of the problem.
- ‘Macro Models’ modules provide simulations of the models presented in the book. Students can change the exogenous variables and see the outcomes in terms of shifting curves and recalculated numerical values of the endogenous variables. Each module contains exercises that instructors can assign as homework.
- The inclusion of the ‘Fed Chairman Game’ created by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, allows students to become Chairman of the Fed and to make macroeconomic policy decisions based on news events and economic statistics. It gives students a sense of the complex interconnections that influence the economy. It is also fun to play!
