"This book was developed as a text for business school courses in macroeconomics. It has been used in the Core MBA and Kelley Direct Programs at the Indiana University Kelley School of Business, the German International Graduate School of Management and Administration in Hannover, the German Graduate School for Law and Management in Heilbronn, Germany, the Helsinki School of Economics, and the Sungkyunkwan University MBA Program in Seoul, Korea. This book is a different kind of macroeconomics textbook. Because it was written for business students specifically, it focuses on their needs to interpret and apply macroeconomic analysis and tools. It uses very little mathematics and it shuns the model-building general equilibrium approach taken in most textbooks. Rather, the book is organized around topics - those topics that are written about daily in the business press like inflation, government deficits, international trade imbalances, exchange rates, and more"--
