Caracteristici noi
The eighth edition has the following new chapters:
Chapter 4. Monetary Systems. This new chapter moves coverage of the monetary system to early in the book to emphasize the importance of the role of banks in the monetary system, and how central banks influence the money supply. In the light of the multiple crises concerning monetary systems throughout the world, this puts the material front and centre in the book. The chapter includes a new case study on quantitative easing and the recent explosion in the monetary base.
Chapter 20. The Financial System: Opportunities and Crises. The most significant addition to the text, this new chapter explores the crucial linkages between the financial system and the broader economy, especially in light of the recent financial crisis. The chapter covers the functions of the financial system, the causes and effects of financial crises, and the government policies that aim to deal with crises and to prevent future ones.
There is also the following noteworthy new content:
Chapter 2: A case study on the Billion Prices Project, which uses data found on the internet to monitor inflation trends.
