Description
Monetarism has had a major impact on the thinking of political leaders and the conduct of economic policy during the last decade. These two volumes trace the origin and development of monetarism from the work of David Hume and Irving Fisher through to the very recent research by eminent contemporary economists including among others Milton Friedman, Robert Lucas, Rudiger Dornbusch and Thomas Sargent. Wide-ranging and comprehensive in scope, the book covers both the theoretical and empirical aspects of monetarism as well as its implications for economic policy.
