[edit] FOUNDATIONS OF MODERN MACROECONOMICS
Suitable for a core course in modern macroeconomics, this book deals with several major topics, summarizes the important approaches, and gives students a coherent angle on all aspects of macroeconomic thought. Each chapter deals with a separate area of macroeconomics, and each contains a summary section of key points and a further reading list.
Advanced Macroeconomics can seem a daunting prospect. Complex and poorly defined, infected with a variety of conflicting approaches, it is difficult for the student to get an overall picture of what there is and how it fits in. 'Macroeconomics in 16 Frames' is aimed at getting round this fundamental problem: it deals with all the major topics, summarizes the important approaches, and gives the student a coherent angle on all aspects of macroeconomic thought. Each frame deals with a separate area of macroeconomics, and each contains a summary section of key points, further reading, and exercises, enabling the student to check what she has learnt, investigate further in other books, and test her knowledge. A final overview chapter brings together the main strands of modern macroeconomic thought and gives a brief precis of new approaches. The book is rounded off by a mathematical appendix which provides the mathematical nuts and bolts for many of the theories dealt with earlier. The sixteen frames are: Frame 1: Who is Who in Macroeconomics? Frame 2: Dynamics in Aggregate Demand and Supply Frame 3: The Macroeconomics of Dr. Pangloss Frame 4: The Macroeconomics of Mr. Pavlov Frame 5: The Macroeconomics of Quantity Rationing Frame 6: Does Government Debt Matter? Frame 7: A Closer Look at the Labour Market Frame 8: Trade Unions and the Labour Market Frame 9: Search in Labour Markets Frame 10: International Macroeconomics Frame 11: Credibility, Reputation, and Political Economy Frame 12: Money and Financial Markets Frame 13: New Keynesians Frame 14: Growth Frame 15: Real Business Cycles Frame 16: Intergenerational Economics Macroeconomics in 16 Frames is an intermediate-level text, aimed at 3rd and 4th year undergraduate and graduate students. It will be invaluable both for students and instructors.
