Understanding the Ground Rules for the Global Economy In this revised and updated edition of A Concise Guide to Macroeconomics, David A. Moss draws on his years of teaching at Harvard Business School to explain important macro concepts using clear and engaging language. This guidebook covers the essentials of macroeconomics and examines, in a simple and intuitive way, the core ideas of output, money, and expectations. Early chapters leave you with an understanding of everything from fiscal policy and central banking to business cycles and international trade. Later chapters provide a brief monetary history of the United States as well as the basics of macroeconomic accounting. You’ll learn why countries trade, why exchange rates move, and what makes an economy grow. Moss’s detailed examples will arm you with a clear picture of how the economy works and how key variables impact business and will equip you to anticipate and respond to major macroeconomic events, such as a sudden depreciation of the real exchange rate or a steep hike in the federal funds rate. Read this book from start to finish for a complete overview of macroeconomics, or use it as a reference when you’re confronted with specific challenges, like the need to make sense of monetary policy or to read a balance of payments statement. Either way, you’ll come away with a broad understanding of the subject and its key pieces, and you’ll be empowered to make smarter business decisions.
Economics for Environmental Studies
This textbook provides a concise introduction to micro- and macroeconomics and demonstrates how economic tools and approaches can be used to analyze environmental issues. Written in an accessible style without compromising depth of the analysis, central issues in the public policy debate on environmental problems and environmental policy are discussed and analyzed from an economics perspective. The book is meant as an introductory (and in some parts intermediate) text for undergraduate students in environmental sciences without a background in economics. It also serves as a companion for economists interested in a presentation of the micro and macro foundations of environmental economics, in a nutshell. The second edition has been revised, updated and extended in may ways, for instance by adding a microeconomic section on environmental technical change, a discussion of the significance of technical change for a sustainable development and a considerably extended macroeconomic section on economic growth.
了解總體經濟的第一本書（經典紀念版）：想要看懂全球經濟變化，你必須懂這些
想看懂全球經濟變化，最好的入門書！ 中華經濟研究院研究員 吳惠林 專文推薦 物價都在漲，只有薪水不漲！ 這世界是怎麼了？ 通貨膨脹是什麼？ 「名目利率」和「實質利率」有何不同？ 為什麼「產出」比「貨幣」重要？ 政府的財經措施，其實是要影響人們的「預期心理」。預期心理如何影響經濟情勢？ 這些問題，都和總體經濟有關，也和群眾的行為與心理、國內和跨國的經濟行為有關。我們在財經新聞中看到的，幾乎都跟總體經濟有關。從事理財投資、商業決策，也必須了解利率、匯率、物價、債務風險等等課題。 既然總體經濟會影響到我們每個人的生活，市面上的總體經濟書籍都是一大堆難懂的方程式跟圖表。這本書用更簡單的方式，來探討總體經濟，它有兩大特色： 強調核心觀念和直覺。 說明總體變數（如貨幣供給、利率、匯率、物價等）之間的關係，以及如何互相影響。這可以幫助你預期、預估未來情勢。 作者任教於哈佛商學院，本書最先就是在哈佛的課堂上使用，經過多次修正，最後成書，並廣受好評。作者把一般人很難搞懂的總體經濟學，鎖定三大重點： 產出（output）：如何計算一國所生產的貨品及勞務的價值（GDP），以及為什麼決定我們生活水準的是生產量，而不是貨幣。 貨幣（money）：貨幣供給是什麼？貨幣的各種「價格」──利率、匯率及物價水準（與通貨膨脹）──如何影響整體經濟？ 預期心理（expectations）：人們對於關鍵的總體變數（如通貨膨脹或利率、匯率變化）有時會產生一種預期，這種預期是有可能自我實現的。 書中還會談到政府的財政政策及貨幣政策、GDP（國內生產毛額）如何計算、國際收支（Balance of Payments），這些都直接關聯到一國的經濟體質好壞，以及成長的可能性。 懂一點總體經濟，可以幫助你看懂財經新聞，更能洞悉政府官員或「專家」的言論，並建立你自己的看法。 這本書不會提供當下經濟問題的解方，但它提供了一系列的基礎知識，幫助你把零散的觀念串連起來。想要看懂全球經濟，這本書是一把鑰匙，讓你在消費、投資、決策時，做更聰明的決定。 ★★★★本書為《哈佛商學院最受歡迎的7堂總體經濟課》改版★★★★ 專家好評…… 「任何觀察家要討論當前的總體經濟狀況，都需要清楚了解好幾個基本的經濟觀念、它們是如何衡量計算的、以及它們如何互相產生關聯。大衛‧莫斯這本簡短、沒有難懂術語的書，正能符合這些需求。它沒有告訴你應該做些甚麼，但是它告訴你要如何開始思考應該做些什麼。」 ──羅伯特‧梭羅（Robert Solow），麻省理工學院榮譽退休教授，諾貝爾經濟學獎得主 「非凡的教學成就。焦點集中在總體經濟學中對了解企業經營環境最重要的部份，而作者清晰透徹的寫法，使本書成為商學院學生以及企業主管理想的教科書。」 ──Julio Rotemberg，哈佛商學院企業管理教授 「非常清晰且細緻的總體經濟學介紹。」 ──理查‧維特（Richard Vietor），哈佛商學院教授暨《國家競爭力》(How Countries Compete)一書作者
