The ninth edition of Contemporary Economics continues to offer a clear, concise presentation of basic micro- and macroeconomic theory. Emphasizing how the discipline of economics connects to the world, the book takes a friendly and accessible tone, illustrating theory with applications.
This new edition comes with updated applications and data to reflect the changing world events and contemporary issues since the previous edition was published. With a vast range of updated applications, the handbook uses real-world, globally relevant examples that make the subject easy to understand.
Including a suite of digital resources including instructor's manual, lecture slides, and test bank, Contemporary Economics is suitable for both economics students and non-majors studying economics and economic issues at the introductory level.
