商品描述

Complete economics coverage shows students how economics is relevant to their lives
●NEW and UPDATED - Examples and policy discussions detail developments in US and world economies, including the longest economic expansion in the history of the US economy, the first significant international trade war since the 1930s, and record peacetime federal budget deficits — helping students become educated consumers, voters, and citizens.
●NEW and UPDATED - Chapter-opening Cases illustrate how the economic concepts presented in the text impact real-life businesses, including Nike, Apple, Lyft, and Whirlpool — providing a unifying theme for the chapter and sparking students’ interest. Students can also visit MyLab™ Economics to watch a brief video by author Glenn Hubbard that summarizes the key points of each chapter opener.
●Chapter-opening Economics in Your Life& Career boxes ask students to consider questions related to their lives and careers — adding a personal dimension to the material. 
●NEW and UPDATED - End-of-chapter Questions, Problems, and Critical Thinking Exercises help students build skills to analyze and interpret information and apply reasoning and logic to new or unfamiliar ideas and situations.

Student-focused features enhance understanding of key economic topics
●NEW - An Inside Look boxes in chapters 1 - 4 use news articles to teach students how to apply economic thinking to current events and policy debates. An excerpt of the article, step-by-step analysis, corresponding graph or table, and Thinking Critically exercise are provided. Additional articles are routinely posted to MyLab Economics. 
●NEW and UPDATED - Apply the Concepts features reinforce key concepts and help students interpret what they read in the news. Each Apply the Concept has a related question in the end-of-chapter Problems and Applications section. Students can then visit MyLab Economics to watch a brief video by author Glenn Hubbard that summarizes the key points of each. Twenty-seven new Apply the Concepts have been added and 73 have been revised in the 8th Edition. 
●Don’t Let This Happen to You boxes alert students to the most common pitfalls in the chapter’s material. This is followed up with a related question in the end-of-chapter Problems and Applications section. 
●NEW - Solved Problems show students how to solve an economic problem by breaking it down step by step. New to this edition are 7 Solved Problems and whiteboard videos of each Solved Problem that bring these real-world issues to life with audio, background photos, and construction of graphs and tables.
●UPDATED - Concept Checks, consisting of multiple-choacice, true/false, and fill-in-the-blank questions, act as “speed bumps” that encourage students to stop and check their understanding of fundamental terms and concepts before moving on to the next section. 
●UPDATED - 250 Figures, tables, and their animations provide clear insights into economic issues, and have been updated so students are working with the latest data available.
●End-of-Chapter Real-Time Data Exercises help students become familiar with a key data source (FRED™, the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis' site), learn how to locate data and develop skills in interpreting data.
