It is a matter of great satisfaction for us that our book Principles of Macroeconomics written for B.Com. and BA (Programme) Second Year, Delhi University, was very well received by teachers both by students and teachers alike. Encouraged by this response, we now present the second Editions of our book. This book covers the entire syllabus in a comprehensive and exhaustive way. The pattern of discussion follows the framework as laid in Richard G. Lipsey and Alec K. Chrystal, Principles of Economics (New York, Oxford University Press, Ninth editions 1999) as required in the syllabus. The discussion in our book is divided into four parts. The organization, structure and contents of these parts is as follows.
