Insightful!
This lucid, plain, straightforward book is not necessarily the sort of thing one expects from an economist, yet author Stanley Fischer is one of our era's greatest economists. His work at the International Monetary Fund put him on the front lines during some of the twentieth century's most serious economic crises and panics. He has a unique and valuable perspective. His timely discussion of the ...

Macroeconomics by Dornbusch and Fisher
This was the most enjoyable and interesting book on economics I ever read during my Economics undergraduate studies at University of Toronto. I recommend this book highly. Even if you are not an eco major, you should read it too as it teaches you macro economics in a fun way. It is a tragic that his main author Professor Rudi Dornbursch passed away. He knew how to seduce readers to enjoy and ...

Good economics book
Some books have too much needless pages just only to get thicker book, but this has no fluffy at all. 600+ pages simply stickt business and no repetition of self-evident things.

Great Book - Samuelson and Nordhaus Are Awesome
This is a classic Macro text used for many Intro to Macro-Econ. I used a similiar text (many editions before) when I took my first econ class in college over 10 yrs ago. This is a great book, easy to understand and fluid reading. Thumbs Up!!!

Client Participation in Human Services: The Prometheus Principle
1 review
Transaction Publishers
, 1973
making better use of social services
The motivating idea is the Prometheus Principle, where citizens are persuaded to make full use of social workers and others. It addresses a widespread problem, where resources are available, especially in terms of such workers, but people who really need these services do not fully partake of them. The context is quite varied. One chapter looks into the rights of medical patients. While ...

Most Important Book I Read in College
As I pursue my doctorate in mathematics education and look back over the textbooks I've read over many years of schooling, I'd have to say that Samuelson's Economics--required reading years ago when I took Freshman microecomics--has had the strongest long-term influence on my world view. Concepts like: -the way competition works to make an efficient but not necessarily equitable economy, ...

Broad macro theory at your hands!
I loved this book since I first read it. It's a complete book in terms of modern macroeconomic theory topics covered and in the treatment of them. The authors have focused in modern development in the field and have tried to gather a significant collection of models and theories which explain several aspects of the macroeconomic analysis (just check the index to find out all that you can read ...

Straight, Hardhitting Talk from a Former Governor of the Bank of Canada
In Making Money, John Crow puts aside centralbankese and writes in a plain style that is a real pleasure to read, provided of course that you are not on the receiving end of his caustic wit. This book provides the most frank inside account of the workings of a central bank since the 1954 publication of Emile Moreau's Souvenirs d'un Gouverneur de la Banque de France, which recounts the history ...

Not worth the money
This book is most certainly not worth the $40. I bought it at the suggestion of my macroeconomics professor and have been severely disappointed by it. The summaries of the chapter sections are good, but the questions are awful. They help somewhat, but the major problem is that many of the answers in the back of the book are flat out WRONG. And it's not just 1 or 2 here and there, it's several ...

Japanese corporate finance
Hoshi and Kashyap provide an interesting history of the post war corporate finance, with relevant information from the pre-war period that sets the tone. Their analysis includes comprehensive and illustrative data with sources on various aspects of the development of Japan's corporate finance arrangements. Although their exposition of the decline of the Keiretsu system is relatively detailed, it ...
