Macroeconomics: Policy and Practice, 2nd Edition, is a textbook designed for intermediate macroeconomics courses. Drawing on economic events, the volume examines policy issues debated in media and public discussions.
Broad areas of coverage include macroeconomic data measurement, the drivers of long-run economic growth, and the mechanisms of short-run business cycles. The text also addresses monetary and fiscal policy, the financial system, and microeconomic foundations of the economy.
Author Frederic S. Mishkin draws on Federal Reserve policymaking experience to provide step-by-step explanations of economic models. An aggregate demand and supply framework is paired with real-world examples to help students connect theoretical principles with practical applications.
