Macroeconomics - David C. Colander

. .

Résumé :
The integrated solutions for Colander's Macroeconomics 10e have been specifically designed to help today's students succeed in the principles of economics course. Colander's trademark colloquial approach focuses on modern economics, institutions, history, and modeling, and is organized around learning objectives to make it easier for students to understand the material. Significant improvements in pedagogy such as reworked end-of-chapter problems and instant feedback on assignments will engage students in the ninth edition like never before and instill the economic sensibility necessary to apply economic concepts to the real world.

Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, and how they need it, so that your class time is more engaging and effective.
