Review of the hardback: 'The literature on economic growth has produced a number of models to explain the determinants of the long-run rate of growth. Turnovsky provides an excellent survey of these models, with an emphasis on the implications of the various models for the long-run effects of fiscal policies in a small open economy. This book is an important contribution to the understanding of the dynamic effects of macroeconomic policy by one of the leaders in the field.' Eric Bond, Vanderbilt University
