Abstract

Wha t’s New In The Eleve nth Edi tio n In addition to the expected updating of all data through 2014 whenever possible, there is major new material in every part of the text. Pearson e-text with Mini-Lecture Videos: A New Way of Learning The Pearson e-text in MyEconLab for the eleventh edition, Global Edition, is available online from MyEconLab textbook resources. Instructors and students can highlight the text, bookmark, search the glossary, and take notes. More importantly, the Pearson e-text provides a new way of learning that is particularly geared to today’s students. Not only will students be able to read the material in the textbook, but by a simple click on an icon they will be able to watch mini-lecture videos presented by the author for figures in the text. For analytic figures, these mini-lectures build up each graph stepby- step and explain the intuition necessary to fully understand the theory behind the graph. For data figures, the mini-lectures highlight the key data points that are of greatest interest. The mini-lectures are an invaluable study tool for students who typically learn better when they see and hear economic analysis rather than read it. Real-Time Data A high percentage of the in-text data figures are labeled MyEconLab Real-Time Data. For these figures, students can see the latest data in the Pearson e-text, using the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s FRED database. In addition, the new edition of the text includes a whole new class of problems that involve real-time data analysis. These problems, marked with , ask the student to download data from the Federal Reserve • A new section on the response of financial regulation to the global financial crisis (Chapter 12).
