Paperback + Connect, McGraw
Macroeconomics engages students by approaching economics as a way of explaining real people and their decisions, and by providing a set of tools that serve to solve many different types of problems.
Macroeconomics is designed to keep students engaged, delivering core economic concepts along with an introduction to important new ideas in economic thought. Taking a modern approach, Karlan is organized around learning objectives and matched with sound learning tools in Connect aimed at enhancing students’ analytical and critical thinking skills. Karlan presents real-life examples and encourages students to think through decisions they’ll face in life and ultimately shows that economics is the common thread that enables us to understand, analyze, and solve problems in Canada and around the World.
Every chapter fulfills three fundamental commitments: 1) to show how economics can solve real-life problems, 2) to teach principles as analytic tools for dealing with real situations, and 3) to focus on what matters to students.
