Principles of Macroeconomics 9th edition boils economics down to its essentials, by considering what is truly important for students to learn in their first course in economics. In keeping with the authors’ philosophy of showing students the power of economic tools and the importance of economic ideas, this edition pays careful attention to regional and global policies and economic issues – including the impacts of the contemporary macroeconomic issues, inflation, unemployment, interest rates, and monetary and fiscal policy. The resource emphasises the material that students should and do find interesting about the study of the economy, resulting in a focus on applications and policy, and less on formal economic theory. Principles of Macroeconomics, 9th edition encourages students to make their own judgements by presenting both sides of the debate on five controversial issues facing policy makers: the proper degree of policy activism in response to the business cycle, the choice between rules and discretion in the conduct of monetary policy, the desirability of reaching zero inflation, the importance of balancing the government’s budget, and the need for tax reform to encourage saving.

Most economics books used in New Zealand are US or Australian based and so lack much (or anything) in the way of information relating to New Zealand. For microeconomics this is not so important, but this is not the case for macroeconomics where there are often considerable differences between different economies. The New Zealand Macroeconomy: What we measure and what it means provides an up-to-date and concise solution, filling the 'macroeconomy gap' for students studying economics in the New Zealand context. Written to be read in conjunction with existing economics books The New Zealand Macroeconomy: What we measure and what it means discusses core topics from the New Zealand perspective in a conversational tone that makes this book eminently readable and an invaluable resource for all introductory economics students in New Zealand. This short text will also be a valuable supplement for NCEA students.
