内容简介
Macroeconomics is the most exciting new
economics textbook in a generation. Charles Jones distills
modern macroeconomics as it is currently practiced—producing the
first text to cover modern growth theory at the undergraduate
level. The author's unique abilities as a teacher and writer render
this modern treatment of economic theory an easy read for students
new to the field. Together with a distinctive focus on problem
solving, this clearly written text brilliantly matches
accessibility with cutting-edge theory.
