Macroeconomics

by Andrew B. Abel, Ben S. Bernanke, Dean Croushore

Macroeconomics presents macroeconomic theory in a big-picture way. The text focuses on a single model, to provide you with a clear understanding of macroeconomics and its classical and Keynesian assumptions. Comprehensive coverage helps you analyze real macroeconomic data that real policy makers and researchers use.

The 11th Edition features new coverage, applications, and problems throughout. It also reflects recent events and developments in the field, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic and the tools used by the Federal Reserve in response.

Textbooks are never fun, but this provided a good overview of Macro.

Не лучшая книга, не рекомендую... Ожидал большего. С другой стороны, интересно, что авторы целиком полагаются на IS-LM модель, игнорируя модель совокупных спроса-предложения. На самом деле, мне это даже нравится: студент больше внимания уделит игре сил на конкретных рынках (в этой книге, кстати, активно разработан и labor market, что очень хорошо), держа в голове, как бы, эволюцию равновесия. Жалко только, что так сжато описана открытая экономика, в обмен на академические подробности реальных бизнес-циклов и т.п.

This textbook (I read the 10th edition) is a great resource for those interested in developing a greater understanding of basic macroeconomic models. Framing the discussions around the two primary schools of economic thought—Keynesian and classical—the authors discuss each model in the context of each, and provide a comprehensive analysis of the merits and pitfalls of the theories. I particularly recommend this textbook for its introduction of the IS-LM model—and more generally, for any beginner economics student.

I give this book 4 star only because of its exercises. It has the best set of problems: both solved & asked to solve.
This book is unusual in its writing style compared to other books. To many, it may appear confusing & that's normal. Yet it has some details unavailable in other books, topics like J-curve etc.

I actually learned a lot from this book and class! Macro theory > micro theory

Read this twice this year for my exams. Overall a great resource for studying intermediate macro and the authors are brilliant economists.

Already I've learned that America's abysmal savings rate isn't as awful as it appears on first glance. Maybe next I'll learn that eating Irish children is a good way to provide income to starving Irish families.

Thought the book was well organized but there were some mistakes in the text (mostly in the numerical problems) so it could have been better edited.
