Abstract

"This is an intermediate-level macroeconomics textbook for undergraduate students who wish to gain some exposure to the Chinese economy while learning macroeconomics. And this is a truly "intermediate-level" textbook since it provides a calculus treatment of the standard intermediate macroeconomic theories such as the Solow models, IS-LM models, and so on. Students in many countries need an alternative macroeconomics textbook that is less American-centric than the existing ones. In particular, students in many developing countries need to learn about theories (e.g., the Lewis model of economic development) and cases (the Asian Financial Crisis) that are relevant to developing countries but are ignored in mainstream English textbooks. The use of calculus makes the textbook concise without sacrificing depth. And most importantly, after some training, students would feel comfortable with applying mathematics, the "engine of inquiry", to macroeconomic analysis. Junhui Qian is Professor of Economics at Antai College of Economics and Management, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China. He obtained a Ph.D. degree in Economics in 2007 from Rice University. His research areas include econometrics, international finance, and the Chinese economy. He has published academic papers in top international journals such as the Journal of Econometrics and co-edited Financial Systems at the Crossroads: Lessons for China withWing T.Woo, Yingli Pan, and Jeffrey D. Sachs. He teaches a wide variety of courses including macroeconomics, econometrics, and the Chinese economy"--
