Recensioner i media

‘This reader-friendly textbook edited by Hassan Bougrine, Louis-Philippe Rochon and Mario Seccareccia offers much needed realistic interpretations of the macroeconomy as well as a deep understanding of the key ideas shaping debates on macro theory and policy. Its fifteen chapters, all written by experts in the field, are analytically crisp and sharp, painstakingly referenced, and up to date for the post-pandemic era. In each chapter, mainstream thought is compared with (demonstrably more realistic) the heterodox tradition. The result is a major feat: an exceptionally interesting, exciting and remarkable textbook that is ideal for courses in intermediate macroeconomics, that without doubt will be loved by students, and that will nurture an indestructible sensitivity to realistic macroeconomic thinking in future economists. Highly recommended.’
