Outlines & Highlights for Macroeconomics by Colander,

Outlines & Highlights for Macroeconomics by Colander, Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

An exploration of the macroeconomic aspects of economic growth, business cycles, and monetary and trade policy

Macroeconomics explains how recent tax cuts have combined with the war on terrorism and slow economic growth to contribute to increasing budget deficits. Also included are discussions of international trade policy, comparative advantage, and outsourcing, as well as valuable Web access to more than250 minutes of new videos from Paul Solman of the “Lehrer NewsHour.”

Synopsis:

Written in an informal colloquial style, this student-friendly principles of economics 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.
