This graduate level text on economic growth surveys neoclassical and more recent growth theories, stressing their empirical implications and the relation of theory to data and evidence. The authors have undertaken a major revision for the long-awaited second edition of this widely used text, the first modern textbook devoted to growth theory. The book has been expanded in many areas and incorporates the latest research.After an introductory discussion of economic growth, the book examines neoclassical growth theories, from Solow-Swan in the 1950s and Cass-Koopmans in the 1960s to more recent refinements; this is followed by a discussion of extensions to the model, with expanded treatment in this edition of heterogenity of households. The book then turns to endogenous growth theory, discussing, among other topics, models of endogenous technological progress (with an expanded discussion in this edition of the role of outside competition in the growth process), technological diffusion, and an endogenous determination of labor supply and population. The authors then explain the essentials of growth accounting and apply this framework to endogenous growth models. The final chapters cover empirical analysis of regions and empirical evidence on economic growth for a broad panel of countries from 1960 to 2000. The updated treatment of cross-country growth regressions for this edition uses the new Summers-Heston data set on world income distribution compiled through 2000.

《信用创造、货币供求与经济结构》是一本研究中国货币与宏观经济问题的书。作者在本书中使用多部门和结构主义的方法探讨了货币总量的来源以及货币供求、经济增长、通货膨胀之间的关系问题。书中的研究内容主要包括：一是信用货币创造机理及其与经济结构变化的关系。二是运用信用货币创造理论来分析存贷差等问题。三是离岸市场发展与货币创造的关系。四是潜在经济增速与货币需求问题。五是研究产出与通胀动态问题。六是有关货币供求与产出、通胀动态变化的研究。七是货币总量需求和货币化比率（M2/GDP）在不同经济体之间存在差异的原因和机理。八是货币与结构性通胀问题。通过作者这些科学的研究、规范而清晰的理论解释和实践分析，有助于读者更充分地理解我国经济中的很多重要的货币和宏观经济现象，深化对诸如货币“超发”问题、存贷差问题、人民币“走出去”以及货币政策的功能与定位等问题的认识。相信每个关注中国宏观经济和金融的读者，阅读此书后都会有重要的启发和收获。作者李斌研究员和伍戈研究员长期在中央银行从事货币政策工作，具有较广的宏观经济视野和丰富的一线政策操作经验，逻辑思路也是他们在实践工作中不断积累形成的。世界银行前任首席经济学家兼副行长、北京大学国家发展研究院林毅夫教授和中国社科院副院长、学部委员李扬教授亲自为《信用创造、货币供求与经济结构》作序，中国人民大学黄达教授对书给予了充分肯定，孙冶方经济科学基金会理事长李剑阁、清华大学经济管理学院讲席教授、副院长白重恩、香港大学经济金融学院讲席教授许成钢联袂推荐本书。对于我们观察和理解经济转型期中国的宏观经济以及货币政策提供了一个窗口，具有较强的理论价值和现实意义。

对货币政策问题的研究，离不开对数量型还是价格型调控的探讨。这是个老问题，一般性的讨论也比较多。比较而言，强调规范性和系统性，是《货币数量、利率调控与政策转型》的一个特点。《货币数量、利率调控与政策转型》研究所涉及的问题包括货币政策目标选择、传导机制及其效果比较，政策转型的现实选择以及开放宏观格局对货币政策的影响等。实际上，《货币数量、利率调控与政策转型》的涉猎范围早已超过货币政策中间目标的讨论。

This rigorous but brilliantly lucid book presents a self-contained treatment of modern economic dynamics. Stokey, Lucas, and Prescott develop the basic methods of recursive analysis and illustrate the many areas where they can usefully be applied. After presenting an overview of the recursive approach, the authors develop economic applications for deterministic dynamic programming and the stability theory of first-order difference equations. They then treat stochastic dynamic programming and the convergence theory of discrete-time Markov processes, illustrating each with additional economic applications. They also derive a strong law of large numbers for Markov processes. Finally, they present the two fundamental theorems of welfare economics and show how to apply the methods developed earlier to general equilibrium systems. The authors go on to apply their methods to many areas of economics. Models of firm and industry investment, household consumption behavior, long-run growth, capital accumulation, job search, job matching, inventory behavior, asset pricing, and money demand are among those they use to show how predictions can he made about individual and social behavior. Researchers and graduate students in economic theory will find this book essential.
