Author Description

Product Description This book is about economic dynamics--about how the economy adjusts over time. Its focus is on economic analysis rather than mathematics, so unlike many other books in the field which treat mathematics as the core and choose economic examples to suit the requirements of the math, it keeps the focus on the economics, treating mathematics as a tool of economic analysis. The book is example-driven, built around models drawn from a wide range of fields in economics. The focus of the illustrations is qualitative analysis of the sort found in economic journals, and the structure of the models is dictated by the requirements of the economic analysis. Unnecessary complexity has been avoided, yet the models have been presented in the same general form as they appear in the professional literature. About the Author Brian S.
