Description
For Principles of Macroeconomics courses at two- and four-year colleges and universities
Reveal the relevance of economics through real-world business examples

Macroeconomics, Fifth Edition makes economics relevant by demonstrating how real businesses use economics to make decisions every day. Regardless of their future career path-opening an art studio, trading on Wall Street, or bartending at the local pub-students will benefit from understanding the economic forces behind their work.
