A highly respected teacher—and a leading expert on macroeconomic forecasting, with several years of experience at the Federal level—Croushore makes the personal and the public relevant and interesting to students.The text's shorter, more focused approach addresses the modern framework of today's financial system, in which both financial markets and banks play important roles.
