Concise Guide to Macroeconomics, Second Edition, A MP3 CD – Unabridged, April 19, 2016

The product was as described by the seller. Excellent service.

This fantastic little primer covers the basic principles of macroeconomics as clearly and concisely as one could possibly ask for. If you don't have time to read a textbook, this will familiarize you with the basics.

I was looking for a text that would introduce people to Macroeconomics concepts and ideas without being a Macroeconomic text book. I did a number of web searches and this book kept coming up as recommended. When I got it and flipped through it, I did not see the graphs and other things I expected -- still with a text book mentality.So I started reading and at first the language is academic. Talking about Output, etc. But after reading the first chapter and allowing my self to take it all in, the book's value comes out. Yes its a bit academic and macro economics has some big concepts, but if you give the book the time to read through part 1, then you will understand more.The books principles and ideas are timeless, but David Moss does a nice job of including commentary on the 2007 recession and the economic policies followed.Overall recommended for people who want to know more about how the macro economy works and make better sense out of the economic headlines.

Best book I've read this year. As the title says, it is concise. Clear with thoughtful examples with unbiased descriptions of conflicting theories. Unlike some older texts, the author includes results from behavioral economics. Read page 146, "Uses and Misuses of Macroeconomics" first because it is perhaps the most important page in the book. If you are taking a macro economics course, you can read this book in a few hours and it will make the course material easier to understand. If you are an amateur investor who reads the financial pages, this book is worth your while. Again, start with page 146 where the author's warnings explain why some opinion pieces published in the financial journals are nonsense (or political ax-grinding).

Easy to read and understand, which is no small feat for a macroeconomics book.

A brief & succinct explanation of key macroeconomic concepts with the use of basic graphs, data tables, and painless arithmetic. This book is ideal for those in need of a quick refresher and/or reference guide. Overall, I was pleased with the scope of this brief book and the approachable writing style. The professional may find the Balance of Payments and GDP Accounting chapters helpful.*Delivered as advertised-New

Very clear high level introduction to Macroeconomics. Explained big picture concepts without need of prior training.

Concise meaning only the big ideas are covered and less of the details. GDP, money supply, and balance of payments are explained for 20+ dollars. Good if you need a short general understanding. Better if it was cheaper. Worth a read if you have audible

It's easy to read and understand. It's really concise, and focused to real-world Economics.

This is very far from my field of knowledge.The book is easy to understand for a lay person, especially with some googling of terms. Gives a great overview of macroeconomics. This book is great if you want to understand the basics of marco without going into many details.

I bought this book to try to understand macroeconomics, so growth, GDP, inflation, real and nominal, supply and demand, cross border trade, balance of payments, deficit spending a la Keynes, national and international economic relationships, etc. This author is a superior communicator and teaches the subject so well. I would recommend this excellent introduction to macroeconomics to anyone like me who needs to understand it without getting in too deep. Five stars from me.
