Popular for its coverage of modern policy issues, this clearly writtentext was the first to discuss long-run (macro) fundamentals beforeexploring short-term economic fluctuations. The Sixth Editionmaintains the text’s modern approach of concise yet thoroughcoverage of current economic theories. New co-author AkilaWeerapana responds to the needs of today’s students with thoroughlyrefreshed examples, applications, and end-of-chapter problemsthroughout the text. Streamlined content and pedagogy, incombination with the simplification of advanced topics, make thematerial more accessible. For example, Chapter 3 now focuses solelyon supply, demand, and market equilibrium, and throughout the textboxed features have been realigned to maximize accessibility.

John B. Taylor’s recent service as Undersecretary of the Treasury forInternational Affairs enabled him to strengthen the text’s focus onpolicy issues and the international sector. Proven pedagogy includesTaylor’s trademark Conversation boxes, which provide students withsuccinct step-by-step guidance through particularly difficult concepts.

• Over 65 percent of the Economics in the News boxes are new, andmany of the Economics in Action boxes have been revised, in bothcases providing instructors and students with fresh applications to discuss.

• A new threaded example—the fluctuating price of gasoline—hasbeen added to Chapter 2 to describe an economic event, includingthe contributing factors and how an economic event affectsconsumer behavior.

• The section on macroeconomics ha been updated to address theeconomic developments of the last 25 years, including both therapid growth of China and India and the growth and stabilization ofthe U.S. economy.

• Fully-updated domestic policy discussions cover the growing U.S.budget deficit, the ongoing economic impact of the VolckerDisinflation of the 1980s, and the challenges faced by fiscal policydue to rapid growth of unfunded entitlements, such as SocialSecurity and Medicare.

• New examples have been added that draw on Taylor’s experienceas Undersecretary of the Treasury for International Affairs,including discussions of the history of money and of the newMillennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) program, through withthe U.S. gives assistance to less developed countries.

• Chapter 31, Transition Economies, has been eliminated andChapter 30, International Trade Policy, is the new capstone chapter.
