This is the ninth edition of Macroeconomics (Jackson/McIver/Wilson), the Australian adaptation of the US original Macroeconomics (McConnell, Brue) which is part of the number one bestselling economics textbook suite in the world.

Macroeconomics is appropriately pitched for first-year students of economics or those taking it as a first subject in macroeconomics. Each concept is taught in three ways – verbally, visually and practically – to ensure that all learning styles are catered for.

This edition retains its comprehensive coverage but has been thoroughly updated to reflect significant issues, such as the GFC, and edited to ensure the language and tone of the text are accessible.

Pedagogical features throughout the book are designed to encourage deeper learning and skills in critical analysis and theory is explained in ‘real-world’ examples.
