Schiller (introductory economics, American University) integrates a real-world, global context throughout coverage of basic principles in this introductory text for undergraduates. For this tenth edition, the core macro section is presented exclusively in the context of the AS/AD framework. For instructors who want to discuss the Keynesian cross model, Chapter Nine's appendix has been expanded. There are 21 new "In the News" applications, and boxes on global perspectives have been updated. The text's set of arithmetic and graphing problems is now packaged in the text itself, with 50 new problems. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Bradley R. Schiller has over four decades of experience teaching introductory economics at American University, the University of California (Berkeley and Santa Cruz), the University of Maryland, and the University of Nevada (Reno). He has given guest lectures at more than 300 colleges ranging from Fresno, California, to Istanbul, Turkey. Dr. Schillers unique contribution to teaching is his ability to relate basic principles to current socioeconomic problems, institutions, and public policy decisions. This perspective is evident throughout Essentials of Economics. Dr. Schiller derives this policy focus from his extensive experience as a Washington consultant. He has been a consultant to most major federal agencies, many congressional committees, and political candidates. In addition, he has evaluated scores of government programs and helped design others. His studies of income inequality, poverty, discrimination, training programs, tax reform, pensions, welfare, Social Security, and lifetime wage patterns have appeared in both professional journals and popular media. Dr. Schiller is also a frequent commentator on economic policy for television, radio, and newspapers. Dr. Schiller received his PhD from Harvard and his BA degree, with great distinction, from the University of California (Berkeley). When not teaching, writing, or consulting, Professor Schiller is typically on a tennis court, schussing down a ski slope, or enjoying the crystal blue waters of Lake Tahoe.
