  - MacroThis product was in excellant condition and I would use them again to order a book Rating: - Excellent book that explains concepts clearlyI am afraid that people who cannot understand this book have low IQs or poor reading skills. They are not qualified to read this book. Do not expect a first-grader to evaluate a university professor. This is an excellent book. It clearly explains major concepts in the macroeconomics. With the help of this book, now I am able to understand many economic issues. I can discern some nonsense in daily discussions. Do not listen to anyone who talks about economics issues but still cannot understand this book. Rating:  - Worst book for startersThis is the required text book at Santa Clara University and I can't overemphasize how badly the book is written. The questions and problems are not directly related to the content in that chapter. He refers to pictures a few chapters back easily. The way the material is presented is just impossible to grasp. In some of the problems, he gives the value of a variable and asks a question about what is the value of that variable. Rating: - Possibly the Worst Textbook I've Ever HadI used this book for my EC301 Intermediate MacroEconomics class at Park University. The instructor warned us that this is a challenging book, and that all of her past students struggled with it. I was only able to read and understand part of chapter one, the rest flew about 10 miles over my head. The instructor told us she had suggested a couple of other textbooks to the head of the Econ department at Park, but the head refused. (Makes you wonder what kind of a cash donation the head accepted to use this book, doesn't it?) Now our instructor has stated she will refuse to teach this class again if this textbook is the required text. I completely agree. This is not written for anyone but economists, which leaves all of us other majors out in the cold. I am a finance major, and found this book completely un-readable and uncomprehendable. I'm just glad the instructor offered extra credit options so I'll be able to pass this class with at least a B, if not an A. Rating: - Excellent Macreconomics Book for UndergraduatesI have found this book very helpful in achieving a solid grasp of different macroeconomic concepts. A very important quality that I should mention is how each chapter builds an important foundation for the following chapter. Macroeconomic models are elaborated in a way that the student could understand not only what they explain (predict), but also how they are derived. I strongly recommend this text for anyone who is interested in understanding the basics of macroeconomics. |
