'The key impact that the book has is the clarity and readability of
the contributions. All the pieces are highly informative and a
pleasure to read.'
*K. Lawler, Economic Issues*
'It was Woody Allen who said "economics is about money and why it
is good". Dipping into this book will let you see why it is
good!'
*Christine D. Reid, University of Strathclyde, UK*
'Although this excellent encyclopedia is focused toward
intermediate undergraduates, postgraduates, and lecturers in
macroeconomics, it is easy for any reader to use. Highly
recommended.'
*J.C. Tucker, Choice*
'. . . truly a valuable addition to the materials on the area of
study . . . this work will be useful in college and university
reference collections.'
*Shannon Graff Hysell, American Reference Books Annual 2003*
'Brian Snowdon and Howard Vane are the premier travel writers of
modern macroeconomics. In a series of interviews, anthologies, and
surveys, they have explored the range of macroeconomic thinking and
brought back edifying and entertaining tales of their travels. Now,
in the Encyclopedia of Macroeconomics they have assembled a
superlative detailed guidebook to the macroeconomic landscape. A
useful reference book for all economists - broad in scope, and well
written by distinguished contributors.’
*Kevin D. Hoover, University of California, Davis, US*
'Teachers of macroeconomics are already obliged to Snowdon and Vane
(and Wynarczyk) for their success in persuading our students that
this is a subject where they will find a lively ongoing debate on
vital issues and not just a compilation of exam exercises. Their
new Encyclopedia will be a splendid supplement not only to their
own but to anybody's textbook. Many of the short essays are little
gems. It will be a rare teacher who does not himself (herself) find
a lot to learn from browsing in it.'
*Axel Leijonhufvud, University of Trento, Italy*
'The editors of this volume already have a number of innovative and
useful texts and essay collections (1994, 1997, 1999) to their
credit. Their Encyclopedia of Macroeconomics is comparably valuable
as a basic reference book for 21st Century students and
teachers.'
*Robert W. Clower, University of South Carolina, US, Brasenose
College, Oxford, UK and University of California, Los Angeles, US*
