This was my textbook for development economics. Very clear explanations that are easy to follow through. Graphs and statistics are also clearly explained with elaboration. The chapters are structured such that it makes understanding the factors easy to grasp. Grateful to have Economic Growth as my textbook!

This was a solid textbook about why some countries are poor and others are rich, and possible paths to get from one to the other.

A great book for beginners by a renowned economist, who has had a significant impact on macroeconomic theory even before the publication of this text. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the subjects of growth, sustainability, and prosperity. The book is well-written, clear, concise, and engaging.
