The current state of macroeconomics

the long version

"The book provides an authoritative guide to the current state of macroeconomics and the views of the leading practitioners of the discipline. The subject is approached from three main perspectives: methodology, theory and economic policy. Based on extensive conversations with some of the world's leading macroeconomists, the book is structured in two parts: the first contains a brief introduction and the transcript of the conversations, and the second presents systematic analysis of the main information they contain."--BOOK JACKET.
