Welcome to Economics Express – a series of short books to help you: ·    take exams with confidence ·    prepare and deliver successful assignments ·    understand quickly ·    revise and prepare effectively.   As you embark on your economic journey, this series of books will be your helpful companion.  They are not meant to replace your lectures, textbooks, seminars or any other sources suggested by your lecturers.  Rather, as you come to an exam or an assignment, they will help you to revise and prepare effectively.    Whatever form your assessment might take, each book in the series will help you to build up the skills and knowledge you will need to maximise your performance. Each topic-based chapter will outline the key information and analysis, provide sample questions with responses, and give you the assessment advice and exam tips you will need to produce effective assessments based on these core topics.   A companion website provides supporting resources for self testing, assessment, exam practice and answers to questions in the book.   Dean Garratt is Principal Lecturer in Economics and Course Leader of the Undergraduate Economics degrees at Nottingham Business School  

· This macroeconomics book will be one of the cornerstones of the first wave of Economics Express titles, and will have a large potential market (alongside microeconomics). · All specialist economics students, plus students taking a non-specialist module, and social science students taking an economics module will need this book. · The majority of sales for this guide will come from students taking a one semester course in macro as part of a business or social science degree. This is by far the largest market segment, as there are currently 300K business students in the UK compared to 30K students in economics.
