prices might nevertheless have deserved a<br />

mention, especially since the ballooning literature<br />

on the »New Keynesian Phillips Curve«<br />

is one which students are increasing likely<br />

to stumble across. In terms of supporting<br />

material, the book is extremely thorough in its<br />

provision of exercises at the end of every<br />

chapter – sometimes up to 6 or 7 pages’ worth.<br />

On the other hand, it lacks »suggestions for<br />

further reading« sections, and even lacks a list<br />

of references at the end, references being pro-<br />

vided through footnotes. Maybe the authors<br />

felt they had been so exhaustive in their coverage<br />

that students would have no need or<br />

desire to read more; something which is quite<br />

possibly true!<br />

Overall, then, this is a major contribution to<br />

the advanced undergraduate macroeconomics<br />

textbook market, one of impressive quality<br />

and thoroughness, and it is unlikely to have<br />

any serious rivals for a long time to come.
