Macroeconomics 2e offers a new approach to the subject.
Drawing upon vast experience teaching, researching, and advising
the U.S. government on policy has enabled the authors to
write an intermediate macroeconomics book that will set the
standard for books in this area for years to come. For example,
DeLong/Olney focuses on the interest rate rather than the AS/AD
diagram and includes expanded coverage of the crucial topic of
long-run growth. This lively text is modern, provides extensive
insight into economic policy, incorporates a strong international
perspective, and offers a broad historical perspective.

and methodological frameworks for economic analysis, while
including currently policy issues using a blend of theory and
data, combined with new examples and real world material.
Pedagigical features are significantly enhanced and material is
presented in a clear and accessible manner.
New to this edition
• Two New Chapters: In response to market feedback, two entirely
new chapters have been added--Chapter 17 on Inflation and Chapter
18 on Unemployment.

perspective with particular focus on the economies of Asia. Extensive
analysis is given to the interactions and interdependencies of the Australian
economy with those overseas. Additionally, two detailed chapters
(Cahpters 10 and 11) are devoted to discussing international linkages.
• Models and Data: Students are provided with a rich toolbox of simple
models for analysing today’s economic events. In addition to the already
extensive examples and data, cutting-edge research has been included
to add depth and breadth to their study.
