Introduction to Modern Economic Growth: 9780691132921: Economics Books @ desertcart.com Review: Economic growth and development - Book was as advertised and speedy delivery! Review: The best book on Modern Growth you'll find - This book is simply the best book available on Growth nowadays. In my Macroeconomics class we use both Acemoglu and Sargent's book Recursive Macroeconomic Theory. Sargent's is much simpler in exposition, skipping some important mathematical proofs and not going as deep as Acemoglu does in most of the fundamental techniques. Every time I need to understand the mathematics of Dynamic Programming (be it in discrete time, continuous time, finite of infinite horison, deterministic or stochastic), Acemoglu's is the book I look at.

The best book on Modern Growth you'll find
This book is simply the best book available on Growth nowadays. In my Macroeconomics class we use both Acemoglu and Sargent's book Recursive Macroeconomic Theory. Sargent's is much simpler in exposition, skipping some important mathematical proofs and not going as deep as Acemoglu does in most of the fundamental techniques. Every time I need to understand the mathematics of Dynamic Programming (be it in discrete time, continuous time, finite of infinite horison, deterministic or stochastic), Acemoglu's is the book I look at.

The standard book to study economic growth
I love this book, it contains all modern economic growth models, but it also has the basic ones that gave birth to this new branch of models. A former student of D.Acemoglu taught me a Macro course based on this book and it was amazing. I also recommend it for self study because explanations are very clear. Math requeriments are standard, but it also has some appendixes where he explains all math needed to understand advanced economics.

Good book but not on Kindle
The book is great and clear. The major problem is almost all of the numbered equations are two small to be readable. The only way to read the equation is to cut and paste then enlarge.

Great!!
This book, by one of the most respected contributors to macro, is a one stop shop for economic growth. It is a great book for understanding the fundamentals of macro theory as well as the progression of the theoretical and empirical work in every sub field of growth. It is a must for all graduate students, and I am sure it will be great addition to any researchers collection.

A fantastic book
This is a fantastic book for both research and teaching. It is easy to read, well written and cover the essential of modern macroeconomics.

best
Probably the best introduction (if the the book can be called introduction given the level of the technicality!) into growth. Still unmatched.

A bit wordy
The textbook is a bit wordy

Echo de menos ejercicios resueltos--o al menos con las respuestas-- a lo largo del texto. Estos son un importante complemento de las exposiciones teรณricas.

A must have for Economists. Even if they are not interested in economic growth, the books offer readers a very good introduction to mathematical techniques needed for research in economic theory
