Description:
Balance the scales between economic growth and ecological preservation. The 7th Edition of Environmental Economics provides a clear, highly accessible introduction to how economic principles can be applied to environmental issues. It moves beyond “gloom and doom” to provide practical, market-based solutions for pollution, resource depletion, and climate change, making complex concepts like “externalities” and “carbon taxes” easy to understand.
Why the 7th Edition is a Student Essential:
-
Foundation First: Explains the fundamental economic concepts—like supply, demand, and market failure—before applying them to environmental policy.
-
Global Policy Analysis: Reviews real-world environmental policies from around the globe, including command-and-control vs. incentive-based strategies.
-
Modern Challenges: Features updated data on global climate change, international environmental agreements, and the economics of developing nations.
-
Sustainability Focused: Explores the economic definition of sustainability and how we can measure the true “green” value of a nation’s wealth.
Key Topics Covered:
-
The Economy and the Environment: The link between resource extraction, production, and waste.
-
Externalities: Why markets fail to protect the environment and how to fix them.
-
Valuation: Techniques for putting a price on “non-market” goods like clean air and biodiversity.
-
Policy Instruments: Comparing Carbon Taxes, Cap-and-Trade systems, and Subsidies.
-
International Issues: Analyzing the economics of the Paris Agreement and transboundary pollution.

Description:
Macroeconomics is concerned with the economy as a whole. In macroeconomics, we develop an overall view of the economic system and we study total (or aggregate) economic behaviour. The emphasis is on topics such as total production, income and expenditure, economic growth, aggregate unemployment, the general price level, inflation and the balance of payments. Macroeconomics is therefore the world of totals.
This second edition of Understanding macroeconomics is a comprehensive revision and restructuring of the first edition, but still against a contemporary South African background. The major changes include the following: the chapter on money has been expanded and moved forward, and the material on the Keynesian model has been consolidated in two separate chapters, instead of being spread over different chapters . There is also a greater emphasis on the role of monetary and fiscal policy. New topics include the role of the ratings agencies and the notion of "radical economic transformation".
As in the first edition, the easy style and practical examples make the content extremely accessible. A wealth of relevant information about the South African economy is also provided. A companion to this book, Understanding microeconomics, is also available.
