Under the sole authorship of Profesor Minford, this new dition represents a practical introduction to the principles and applications of rational expectations (RE) methods in macroeconomics for third year undergraduates and postgraduates.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author sets out to provide a basic working knowledge of the Rational Expectations Hypothesis (REH) by demonstrating in full various methods for solving RE models. The book then deals with policies and issues frequently encountered when applying these models including: stabilization policy, fiscal policy, the political economy of democracy and the Phillips curve. Finally, the author turns to methods of testing the REH. By the end of the book, students should be in a position to apply RE models to whatever economy they are concerned with. Professor Minford has updated the text extensively and included new chapters on representatitve agent models (increasingly used in a applied forecasting and policy analysis) and modelling the open economy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the decade since the first edition of this classic text was written, the economics profession's respect for the REH has only increased. The author's introductory and concluding chapters place the REH research programme in its historical context, assess the current state of the debate and look ahead to future research in this important subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003ePatrick Minford \u003c\/b\u003eis Edward Gonner Professor of Applied Economics at the University of Liverpool and one of the UK's leading exponents of Rational Expectations Macroeconomics.
