Macroeconomics: Principles, applications and Tools

This is a text my son needed for a class he was taking at college. It was in good condition and was exactly what was needed. Thank you.

Couldn't have been more satisfied !

I was so pleased that the book came with the access code! My teacher required the code to access MyEconLab, and it is virtually impossible to find a used book with the access code unopened. The book was in great condition as well, and came promptly.

Great buy

This book is very efficient and has served as a great source. It is very time friendly and easy to understand. Each chapter has applications and there are multiple appendixs within the book which go beyond the chapter to explain each aspect of the chapter in more detail. The only down side to this book would be that it is not hard cover and the text may be too small for some readers.

Macroeconomics: Principles and Tools

This easy-to-read, well-structured textbook is an excellent source of information for any economics student. I used this book for Principles of Macroeconomics, an online course I took over the summer. The book is simple yet gives sufficient detail on many topics to not only provide a broad overview, but it is able to go quite in depth. The authors provide the student with a great deal of tools to use and supply many activities, questions and methods to help relate concepts to the real world. This book is written much better than my Advanced Macroeconomics text and is much more student-friendly.

Not perfect, but pretty good

The book is by no means perfect, but it's a darn good book. Its major imperfection is that many important concepts are spread around and not specifically brought to the forefront alone. Otherwise, though, it allows for a great foundation in Macroeconomics for your GECO 200 or equivalent class.
