finally summarizing the main points you can use in your own
leadership practice.
This book is concerned with the methods by which the dynamics of
endogenous economic growth systems may be analysed and numerically
computed, and with the validation of such numerical computations
through qualitative economic reasoning. The methods comprise
linearisation, phase-space analysis and a variety of numerical
integration techniques. In particular, the book provides a detailed
examination of the transitional dynamics (the movement from some
current state towards a steady-state equilibrium) of the
influential endogenous growth model from Paul Romer's 1990 Journal
of Political Economy article: "Endogenous Technological Change."
