The 19th edition of this heavily marketed economics textbook is very expensive, comes in many different editions and versions, and may or may not include the McGraw-Hill connect code. Be very careful that you order EXACTLY the version to be used in your class (including the connect code if necessary). Once you have paid your money, neither nor McGraw-Hill will be very helpful if you got the wrong book.I give this book 1 star for excessive cost, poor customer service, and a (deliberate?) confusing array of editions and versions. This is a very commercial textbook--every aspect of purchasing and using this text ought to provide a good user experience--and that does not happen.If I were judging on writing alone, I would give it 3 stars. It may be required for a particular course, but it is not a "keeper" that you will refer to over the years. For that get Samuelson or Heilbroner.There are at least three editions--US, Global, and Asian. In all three, the text, graphics, and tables are nearly identical, but the chapter numbers, chapter titles, and pages are organized differently. (I have personally used only the Global edition--I have carefully compared my edition to the US edition--I have not personally seen the Asian edition.) If you don't have the same edition as your instructor, when your instructor says, "read pages 200 to 250 for the exam," you will be lost.For each regional edition, there are at least three versions--Economics, Microeconomics, and Macroeconomics. In the global edition, Economics has 39 chapters, Microeconomics has a reduced subset of 25 chapters (general econ and MICRO view), and Macroeconomics has only 22 chapters (general econ and MACRO view).
