Not Helpful,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Macroeconomics: Principles, Problems, and Policies (Paperback)
I struggled through reading this text, and in the end was rewarded with a C in the class. There may be a book that has fewer resources to help students succeed, but I don't know or want to know what that book is.
