Advanced Macroeconomics: An Introduction For Undergraduates by Angus Chi Ho Chu

Advanced Macroeconomics: An Introduction For Undergraduates by Angus Chi Ho Chu

Advanced Macroeconomics covers selected topics in advanced macroeconomics at undergraduate level and bridges the gap between intermediate macroeconomics for undergraduates and advanced macroeconomics for postgraduates.

"Angus Chu's book superbly manages to teach undergraduate students the intertemporal macroeconomic methods needed to fully understand the research going on in this fieldHence it fills an important gap in the current didactic literature, which badly misses it and leaves Bachelor students unable to write, for example, a theoretical thesis ... I strongly recommend this book in any good economics curriculum."; Professor Guido Cozzi; University of St. Gallen, Switzerland; "Angus Chu's text is an excellent exposition of modern macroeconomics for advanced undergraduates, filling a gap between intermediate and advanced graduate material. It is distinctive as it systematically develops models from first principles using dynamic optimisation techniques."; Professor Aditya Goenka; University of Birmingham, UK; "Fills the gap between the standard undergraduate textbook with very little or no calculus and the graduate textbook with too much mathematics for an undergraduate course. The presentation of modern growth theory is excellent, allowing readers to access frontier tools and research topics at a fairly low technical cost."; Professor Giammario Impullitti; University of Nottingham, UK; "Provides an excellent overview of the key macroeconomic models with relevance for government policy. In doing so, it addresses not only the traditional models, but it also gives insights from recent research in this field."; Professor Jozef Konings; University of Liverpool, UK; "This advanced textbook offers an interesting blend of analytical, quantitative and policy insights about the best means to model and assess different mechanisms of economic growth and macroeconomic policy questions."; Professor Sushanta Mallick; Queen Mary University of London, UK; "This book covers a range of policy issues, such as fiscal policy, monetary policy, and innovation policy, in a coherent analytical framework, which has the advantage of helping students understand how different topics in macroeconomics relate to each other."; Professor Pietro Peretto; Duke University, USA; "An excellent textbook that covers a substantial number of advanced macroeconomic topics. This is a wonderful learning and reference guide designed for undergraduate students who want to explore advanced macroeconomics and can be easily adopted at postgraduate level ... This stimulating book provides students with solid grounding and rigorous analysis of mathematical modelling. I particularly like the easy-to-follow structure and comprehensive language which are unique features possessed by this must-have book."; Professor Oleksandr Talavera; University of Birmingham, UK; "This well written textbook expertly bridges the gap between the two levels of study ... In this way, students get well acquainted with the basic toolkit of modern macroeconomics, and the rigorous policy analysis shows them how and when the government can improve upon market outcomes."; Professor Akos Valentinyi; University of Manchester, UK;
