Macroeconomics (COLLEGE IE OVERRUNS) Paperback – 15 Oct. 2017
Purchase options and add-ons
Dornbusch, Fischer, and Startz’s Macroeconomics relies on straightforward explanations by emphasizing concepts over technique, and fitting difficult material into a larger framework so students can see its relevance in the world. The authors explore state-of-the art research, while allowing for flexibility in how much to emphasize these topics. A balanced approach explains both the potential and limitations of economic policy. Hallmark features and key changes in the 13th edition include:
• Background and analysis on The Great Recession of 2007-2009 and its aftermath.• Updates on unemployment and the Federal Reserve, including more detailed dives into each topic with current data, definitions, and context.• History Speaks and What More Do We Know? boxes callout relevant data and information that further enhance the concepts covered within each chapter.• Macroeconomics employs a model-based approach to macroeconomic analysis and demonstrates how various models relate to the goal of giving students the capacity to analyze current economic issues in the context of an economic frame of reference.• A focus on international perspectives helps students understand the important links connecting foreign economies to their own.

The previous reviews are for the 7th and 8th editions. There are dozens of english editions from 1978 at prices down to 1p. Search on Amazon window "Books Dornbusch Macroeconomics" for 6 pages of options.
6e International 1994. pp.665. reviewed here:
An American version of the micro to macro hoax to predict the real world economy. Dornbusch was in the Chicago School (he died in 2012) and Fisher was from the World Bank and now a board member of the US Federal Reserve Bank public corporation. This book is not easy to read and describes analytical calculus by using simple straight line diagrams which will mislead the reader. You will see a lot of ideology like "overemployment".
Hicks (1935) theory emphasises here the Investment or Savings - Money Demand or Supply diagrams (IS-LM) mascarading as the Keynsianism theory erroneously which was published in 1936. It is all very monetarist in philosophy.
Hicks in the 1970s retracted his theory but despite this, he has been unable to stop the teaching of his erroneous "Neo-Keynsian Theory" .
The book is a blizzard of letter symbols. I had to make up a table of variables to follow it. The book may be useful in testing the ability of students to memorise ideas to test by exams but not to teach much about the real world realistically.
For a detailed critique of this and other out of date economics see Steve Keen, Debunking Economics

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible textbook
Nothing wrong with the seller but the book itself sucks! Wish my school didn’t require it for my class because it’s absolute garbage. It explains concepts poorly, I don’t even read the darn thing anymore. My whole class has had to constantly attend tutoring sessions. You’re better off not buying the book. just take really good notes in class and attend group study sessions. Waste of money.
