Macroeconomics 1e

This macroeconomics textbook distills the subject to its essential concepts, providing a clear and focused framework for understanding the workings of the overall economy. It is designed to complement the author’s microeconomics textbook (Microeconomics 1e) and to address a major gap in existing instructional materials: the treatment of modern U.S. monetary policy.
