This book is an outgrowth of years of teaching and doing re search
at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), in the area of
economic growth. Although there have been several books on this
topic published in the last eight years, I have been dis satisfied
with them for several reasons. First, books such as those by Wan,
Burmeister and Dobell are uneven in their technical difficulty and,
while they are excellent, are apparently difficult for first year
graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Solow's expository
book, on the other hand, is at the other ex treme. Furthermore,
many of the books seem to be aimed at the authors' peers rather
than the students. My primary objective in writing this book is to
bridge this gap and to pitch, very appro priately I hope, at the
level of a typical student enrolled in a beginning course in growth
theory. Secondly, almost all the growth models in the literature
can be recast in a single analyti cal framework. Although the
various authors have not written so as to conform to any particular
pattern, it -is the function of a textbook writer to identify such
a pattern, if it exists, and pre sent the theory in that framework.
Many authors make implicit as sumptions about their models which
are either never specified or sometimes specified in footnotes."
