Acemoglu, Laibson, List: An evidence-based approach to economics
Throughout Macroeconomics, authors Daron Acemoglu, David Laibson, and John List use real economic questions and data to help students learn about the world around them.
Taking a fresh approach, the authors use the themes of optimization, equilibrium and empiricism to
illustrate the power of simple economic ideas, and their ability to explain, predict, and improve what
happens in the world. Each chapter begins with an empirical question that is later answered using data in
the Evidence-Based Economics feature. As a result of the text’s practical emphasis, students will learn to apply economic principles to guide the decisions they make in their own lives.
This package includes MyEconLab, an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed
to work with this text to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive,
engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course
concepts.
MyEconLab should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Please be sure you have the
correct ISBN and Course ID. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.
