Macroeconomics: Understanding the Wealth of Nations

Macroeconomics: Understanding the Wealth of Nations

by David Miles (Author), Andrew Scott (Author), Andrew Scott (Author), David Miles (Author)

Synopsis

Miles and Scott deal with sophisticated issues using advanced economic theory but in a manner that is accessible to someone taking a single course in macroeconomics. They discuss real world economic issues and first describe why these issues matter before discussing economic theory. In explaining why certain economic events occur the authors utilise logical economic thinking and modelling but they only introduce models after the real world problem of interest has first been discussed. A distinguishing feature of this text is the focus on the data and detail of the world economy and the use of this material as an entry point into the world of theory.
