Building upon the considerable success of previous editions, Macroeconomics 4/e provides a comprehensive analysis of modern macroeconomics within both a European and a global context. Competing theoretical approaches are presented in a clear and balanced manner with continual reference to data and case study examples from the real world. Burda and Wyplosz have produced another excellent textbook, that will guide students through challenging and complex issues with clarity and simplicity. The excellent teaching and learning aids include chapter overviews, summaries of key concepts, end of chapter exercises, and suggestions for further reading accompanying each chapter.
