Productivity Growth, Inflation, and Unemployment: The Collected Essays of Robert J. Gordon

by Robert J. Gordon

Summary

Seventeen essays include three previously unpublished works and offer sharply etched views on the principal topics of growth, inflation, and unemployment. Robert Gordon re-examines their salient points in a new accessible introduction to modern macroeconomics. Each of the four parts into which the essays are grouped also offers a new introduction. The foreword by Nobel Laureate Robert M. Solow comments on the continuing importance of these essays which date from 1968 to the present.
