"An excellent text which any student of economics can read without losing touch with economic phenomena." ―Winston Griffin, Bucknell University For more than thirty years, Wallace C. Peterson has stuck to his guns on two fronts: first that the best way to understand the macroeconomy is to master the Keynesian analytic framework and, second, that too much mathematics spoils the student's appreciation of basic macroeconomic concepts. Through the Keynesian framework, Professor Peterson has shown students how to interpret the macroeconomy and how to understand alternative economic perspectives.

Longtime observer of the American economy Wallace C. Peterson here offers a wake-up call. The year 1973 marked a turning point, as Peterson makes clear in this carefully documented book. When several key economic indicators changed course, the "silent depression set in, resulting in problems for the shrinking middle class, the poor, and the American family." Peterson calls for strong medicine and closes with proposals for health care, education, and the tax system that will help speed the economy's recovery.

Estenson, Paul S.

The air races of the 1930s were one of Omaha, Nebraska's favorite spectacles. Eight to ten home-built planes took flight and sped around the 5-mile course, flying 50-100 feet off the ground at 200 mph. Thousands cheered as they raced around the pylons.
