Economics has never been so exciting to learn, nor so challenging to teach

The seventh edition of Economics contains the most up-to-the minute coverage and uses the latest data to track and analyse the impact of the global financial crisis on our economy.

Just like the economy, Economics has also been through a thorough overhaul. While retaining its classic features and clear and engaging writing style, it has many new features, including: 

• New co-author Alison Wride from the University of Exeter.
• New part D on Microeconomic Policy with separate chapters on government policies towards the environment, big business and inequality.
• Expanded section on Game Theory covering multiple move and single shot games.
• The most exhaustive revision to date of macroeconomics. The impact of the financial crisis, banking collapse and subsequent recession on fiscal and monetary policy is explored in detail, as is the role of securitisation and issues of liquidity and risk.
