Introduction to Modern Economic Growth is a groundbreaking textfrom one of today's leading economists. Daron Acemoglu givesgraduate students not only the tools to analyze growth and relatedmacroeconomic problems, but also the broad perspective needed toapply those tools to the big-picture questions of growth anddivergence. And he introduces the economic and mathematicalfoundations of modern growth theory and macroeconomics in arigorous but easy to follow manner. Daron Acemoglu is the Charles P. Kindleberger Professor ofApplied Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Preface xv
