Fair of Yale University, is one of the widely adopted economics textbooks in universities across the United States. Over 1 million students worldwide have used this textbook and its companion volume, Principles of Microeconomics. Both authors hold Ph.D. degrees in economics from Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, respectively, and are renowned economists. Professor Case is a member of the Economics Education Committee of the American Economic Association (AEA) and has long been teaching introductory economics courses, possessing unique experience in economics education. Professor Fair, the second author, is an expert in macroeconomic modeling. The book is written in fluent and clear language, requiring only elementary mathematical knowledge. As a timeless macroeconomics textbook, it features the following:
First, it is up-to-date. Published in its first edition in 1996, the book has been revised multiple times over the past decade. Its well-refined structure reflects the mainstream views of contemporary U.S. macroeconomics.
Second, it adopts advanced teaching concepts. The progressive structure, robust toolset, and a "story-chart-formula" three-step teaching model make learning macroeconomics a delightful experience.
Third, it has a well-honed structure system. Based on the exploration of previous editions, the book appropriately addresses challenging topics in macroeconomics teaching, such as the introduction of AS and AD curves and discussions on growth issues, making it highly beneficial for instructors.
The book has been adapted by Professor Wu Hanhong of the School of Economics at Renmin University of China, making it an ideal bilingual macroeconomics textbook for undergraduate economics and management education in China. It is also suitable for MBA and EMBA courses, as well as serving as a reference book for business professionals. Readers who use this book will find that learning macroeconomics requires minimal effort but yields significant rewards.
