- Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2019Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseThe chapters are well organized and graphs are color coded so they're easy to re-draw on white boards for practice, etc. If you read the assigned chapters from this 12th edition before class, you'll do well in Macro. It's also a good reference book to look at when you need clarification after reviewing your assigned chapters for the week. There are practice problems and explanations. Buy the hard copy of this book. Earning an "A" in upper-division macroeconomics is totally worth it.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2018Really great book for macroeconomics. I actually read this to help with my classes... It was invaluable for my research paper.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2017Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseThis may be the most boring textbook ever written.. This was very informal, but very dull. I only bought this book for class, and would not advise buying it for any reason other than class.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2013I taught using Dornbusch and Fischer's text in 1980. I thought it was a better text. However Gordon's text is good, in my opinion, and it is much more current.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2013Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseLove renting the text books...saves lots of $$. who would ever need this book again? Much better than buying it.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2013This is the hardest book I've ever came across! It never explains anything good and the graphs and illustrations does not help a bit

This is absolutely ridiculous, I brought a whole book for $70 and it doesn’t come with the solutions to the questions in the book! - V.B.VenkataramanReviewed in India on March 23, 2020
5.0 out of 5 starsGood book
Good print and subject matter is discussed in a precise manner , not verbose. Not very quantitative but a basic text, for undergraduate students. - Jessica MammanReviewed in Canada on October 7, 2015

Did not ship the North American version despite matching ISBN numbers...It was relatively similar to the North American version although not exactly what I expected and the pictures were not in colour, which was inconvenient.
