Education

Australia's leading texts in Economics have been completely updated in 2019 for students undertaking NSW HSC courses.

The 2019 text has been completely revised to reflect the latest developments in Australia and the global economy relevant to Year 12 students. It guides students through an understanding of the key features of the economy in 2019, including the backlash against globalisation and rising trade protectionism in the Trump era, the widening differences in the economic policy debate, Australia's economic performance in the decade since the global financial crisis, the formation of the Royal Commission into Misconduct in the finance industry in Australia, Australia's energy policy debate and the era of historically low inflation and wage growth.

It includes updated graphs, end-of-chapter summaries and review questions, and revised case studies of the economies of Brazil and Indonesia.

The student book provides access to Reader+, the next generation eBook.

Australia in the Global Economy Workbook Ninth Edition is an active learning guide to accompany the best-selling text Australia in the Global Economy.

The ninth edition features a new selection of HSC-style multiple choice, short answer and extended response questions in each chapter, updated to capture the latest developments in Australia and the global economy, and reflecting the requirements of the New South Wales Higher School Certificate Economics course.
