An equilibrium theory of unemployment assumes that firms and workers maximize their payoffs under rational expectations and that wages are determined to exploit the private gains from trade. This book focuses on the modeling of the transitions in and out of unemployment, given the stochastic processes that break up jobs and lead to the formation of new jobs, and on the implicat...(展开全部)

Long periods of high unemployment have dogged the United States and Western Europe since the early 1970s and most of the well-developed members of the global economy are in another such period now. Dissatisfied with the explanations put forth by the Keynesian, monetarist, New Keynesian and neoclassical schools, Edmund Phelps has constructed a new series of models that account f...(展开全部)

埃德蒙德·菲尔普斯（Edmund S. Phelps, 1933 -） 2006年诺贝尔经济学奖获得者 菲尔普斯教授最重要的贡献在于经济增长理论。他对经济增长的动态最优化路径进行了分析，提出了著名的“经济增长黄金律”，从而正式确立了经济增长理论。因此，他被誉为“现代宏观经济学的缔造者”和“影响经济学进程最重要的人物”之一。 1933年夏天他出生于美国芝加哥，当时美国正处于大萧条谷底，他父母都失去了工作。当时也正是凯恩斯主义形成的时期，凯恩斯主义的政策含义——通过政府干预来拯救经济萧条成为最流行的做法。 1951年，菲尔普斯进入安默斯特学院读大学。在大学第一年里，他按照自己的爱好选择了文学，每天读希腊史诗、古代戏剧等。他迷恋上了柏拉图、休谟等人，对哲学产生了浓厚的兴趣。到大学二年级，在学经济出身的父亲和学家政管理出身的母亲的影响下，他才选修了一门经济学...(展开全部)

The physics of non-equilibrium many-body systems is one of the most rapidly expanding areas of theoretical physics. Traditionally used in the study of laser physics and superconducting kinetics, these techniques have more recently found applications in the study of dynamics of cold atomic gases, mesoscopic and nano-mechanical systems. The book gives a self-contained presentatio...(展开全部)

"Macroeconomic Theory" is the most up-to-date graduate-level macroeconomics textbook available today. This book truly offers something new by emphasizing the general equilibrium character of macroeconomics to explain effects across the whole economy, not just part. It is also the perfect resource for economists who need to brush up on the latest developments. Michael Wickens la...(展开全部)

At Harvard, tenure decisions are a matter of life -- or death. For Dennis Gossen, the economics department whiz kid currently being considered for tenure, it's definitely death. When he's turned down by the high-and-mighty Promotion and Tenure Committee, Gossen commits suicide. A Question of Cost Accounting... Or does he? It's hard to imagine why a young man with a brilliant sc...(展开全部)
