内容説明

Economics can be both entertaining and informative. This next text, by the authors of the market leading Economics of Public Issues, focuses solely on macroeconomic issues that include changes in the unemployment rate, inflation, the federal budget deficit, the international balance of payments, interest rates, and Social Security. This all-new text features 29 chapters that examine such compelling topics as the economics of an aging workforce, government spending and why it is growing so quickly, and the spread of overdraft charges.
