Editorial Reviews

Review

"A marvelous introduction to the methods and substance... to the language, as he puts it, of modern macroeconomics. It is literate, rigorous, up-to-date, and on theoretical issues, comprehensive." Robert E. Lucas Jr, John Dewey Service Professor, The University of Chicago

From the Back Cover

Intertemporal Macroeconomics is the first text to offer a unified and systematic exposition of the key issues, both traditional and new, in dynamic macroeconomics. Based on neoclassical growth theory, the book is designed for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in macroeconomics and finance. It contains an integrated survey of non-linear dynamics written especially for economists and up-to-date statements of the overlapping generations model ranging from theoretical foundations to policy applications.

Costas Azariadis has also provided extensive coverage of many recent developments in the entire range of macroeconomics including endogenous technical progress and its implications for economic development; intergenerational transfers and Ricardian equivalence; expectations, multiple equilibria and market volatility; least squares learning; laboratory experiments in monetary economics; and other topics.

Emphasis is placed on geometric and pedagogical tools which build mathematical models of dynamic economics from their foundations. There are thirty solved examples throughout the book, as well as ample problem sets designed to take readers from simple drill exercises to creative questions on topics of current research.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not even Mediocre: Bad., December 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Intertemporal Macroeconomics (Hardcover)
Azariadis doesn't display the fun or power of macroeconomics. A dull book that intends to be "modern" in its language, and only hides the economics. There are five or six better advanced macroeconomics book to choose from. Buy it only and only if required in the reading list!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for Dynamic Macro, May 5, 2010
This review is from: Intertemporal Macroeconomics (Hardcover)
This is a very good book for understanding Dynamic Macoeconomics, but not for macroeconomics. Someone would like to study Macroeconomics should look for some other books. However, who are interested in the dynamics, such as convergence, stability, bifurcation, chaos and so on, this is an excellent book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre, May 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Intertemporal Macroeconomics (Hardcover)
Not that well organized or motivated. A reader interested in Macroeconomics will not get much out of this book unless they look very hard. Intended as a book for first year graduate students in economics, it fails to bridge the gap between concept-building undergraduate courses and the relatively more mathematical graduate courses.
