Reviews

?For those looking for a well written survey of the extensive literature on this topic, this book is a good place to start.?-Political Science Quarterly ?Persuasively and clearly written, the book presents an excellent explanation of the conventional view of the relationship between inflation and unemployment. The authors carefully examine each part of the theory surrounding the natural rate of unemployment, asserting that the problem of an increasing NAIRU can be solved if we look at the root causes of the increase. The reader will come away with a more complete understanding of the relationship between inflation and unemployment and the place of the NAIRU in that relationship.?-Choice ""For those looking for a well written survey of the extensive literature on this topic, this book is a good place to start.""-Political Science Quarterly ""Persuasively and clearly written, the book presents an excellent explanation of the conventional view of the relationship between inflation and unemployment.
