Editorial Review:

Product Description:
For the Fourth Edition, 2001 Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz and new co-author Carl Walsh thoroughly integrate contemporary economics into the traditional curriculum. Since the publication of Principles of Macroeconomics, Second Edition, in 1997, the explosive development of information technologies has altered the economic landscape in important ways.

In the Fourth Edition, Stiglitz and Walsh embrace the information revolution as an opportunity to revitalize the presentation of economics by linking fundamental concepts and basic models to examples in the "new economy." Supplemented by powerful emedia offerings, outstanding ancillary resources, and comprehensive pedagogy, Principles of Macroeconomics, Fourth Edition, promises to be the most complete, authoritative principles package on the market.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - most biased, left-wing econ book out there
Sitglit-Walsh macroecon book is the most biased econ text in the market. It is riddled with conceptual mistakes (I'm an econ professor), and the fundamentals are presented with flaws. One sales rep told me that the book is really meant to serve the liberal, left-wing leaning students/instructors. We had to chunk the book in the middle of the semester and went with another. What a waste of money for students and my time.
