内容説明

The most current economic development text on the market, this engaging text includes extensive country-specific examples and up-to-date information. Todaro's broad experience and the text's social-political framework make Economic Development accessible even to those with little economic background. With his unique problem- and policy-oriented approach, Michael Todaro uses models and concepts to illustrate real-world development problems. For the Seventh Edition, all chapters have been revised to incorporate the latest data and research. Particular attention is given to economic dislocations throughout Asia, and in Russia and Brazil. Updated Country Case Studies and Comparative Case Studies allow students to apply concepts to various developing nations. In addition, a new Country Case Study on Indonesia highlights this country's significance in the Asian economic crisis.
