Students learn best when they see a concept applied in the context of examples they understand. That is why Economics The Macro View is so successful in classrooms where students hail from a wide variety of majors, backgrounds, and ages. An abundance of relentlessly current, news-worthy examples motivate every chapter and reflect the interests of todays diverse student population. In this new edition, Miller has responded to the way students use their textbook as a study tool by incorporating new pedagogy to help students study effectively and by giving them more opportunities to practice.For todays student on the go, weve created a portable version of Economics The Macro View that is three-hole punched.

A page turner to the very end. As someone who never took economics in college, I found this book enlightening and fulfilling. It uses a lot of charts and diagrams which were pretty cool. Only drawback was that it's a bit dated. A must-read for anyone trying to make sense of the current global crises and monetary policies being thrown around.
i don't recommend this for feminists. i read fourth edition of this book, it was great. However, information was little outdated, you can see from the first paragraph. but theories and techniques is great and easy to learn
Does the job. The disk is as useful as textbook disks can be. The pain! The agony! Economics can be as fun as a poke in the eye with a sharp stick! Who am I kidding, it's been 3 years since I had this course and I have no idea what I learned in it. The cover is pretty, though.
