There is a Microsoft Word for Mac (see link below). TextEdit (in the Applications folder) will open most Word documents. There are free alternatives to work with Word docs such as NeoOffice and OpenOffice (see links below).

Why did Microsoft make office for mac if it's already so compatible with the PC version?

For example Pages can open and export to Microsoft Word doc files. Microsoft sells Microsoft Word to Mac owners in order to make money. Microsoft believes that some people want 'the real thing.' The iWork applications, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, cost Mac users USD$80. The Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student CD retail costs USD$108
