Synopsis

Dornbusch, Fischer, and Startz' Macroeconomics has been a leading intermediate macroeconomic theory text since its introduction in 1978. This revision retains most of the text's traditional features, including a middle-of-the-road approach and very current research, while updating and simplifying the exposition. The text is now even easier to teach from. The only prerequisite continues to be principles of economics.

About this title

From the Publisher

Expanded coverage of growth from one chapter to two. Growth has been moved forward to chapters 3 and 4 of the text.
A new chapter (8) on the New Macroeconomics, greatly expands the section from former chapter 1. Covers rational expectations, the unit root of GDP controversy, real business cycles, and new Keynesian sticky price theory.
The two chapters on inflation and unemployment (16 & 17) have been condensed to one (7).
A middle of the road approach by experts. Controversies are explained but conclusions remain neutral.
Classic questions linked to modern treatments.
Dornbusch, a specialist in Latin American economics, and Fischer, First Deputy Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, speak with authority. Dick Startz, new co-author for 7e, was a graduate student of theirs and teaches at the University of Washington.
International coverage always strong with two updated chapters (12 and 21).
