Excellent Preparation for CFA Level 1

I am an employee at Merrill Lynch (I have my series 7,63,65,24,4), and currently studying for the CFA Level 1 Exam, however, my background is in Biochemistry and Biology so it is pretty obvious that I was behind my peers relative to our formal academic background. So, I felt that I needed a book that that could clearly communicate the macroeconomic policies that govern this country. However, because the CFA level 1 is a difficult exam, I could not afford to have the author dilute the information, or overly simplify the information. Fortunately, the literature provided in this book not only conveyed the information better, and clearer than, the actual CFA preparatory classes that I had been taken, but it was such a fun book to read. The beauty of this book is that it provides actual contemporay, and historic global examples to supplement the literature. Prior to reading this book, I had read other books on macroeconomic policy that were so dry that I could not even finish the chapters (and I had read some pretty dry books during my days as an undergrade pursuing my double major in Biotechnology and Biology), but this book was the type of book that I did not want to put down from the moment I started reading it. Furthermore, this book also assisted me in getting a better understanding of the markets (equities and real estate) for future investments as well. After reading this book, I am such a sharper investor, I can now dissect the nonsense from the valid information that is being promoted on TV and in magazines. I highly recommend this book for everyone who is interested in getting a deeper understanding of how our government works, and how our economy works relative to the rest of the world.

Outstanding!

This book truly does demystify macroeconomics. Professor Langdana makes it accessible and easy to see the results of monetary and fiscal policy. I've never studied economics and I know I have a much better understanding of the subject thanks to him and his book!

Review of Langdana's Macroeconomic Policy

This book truly "demystifies" domestic and global monetary and fiscal policy. The strength of the book lies in the author's ability to not hide behind equations and math but to explain and analyze macropolicy clearly and intuitively. This should be required reading for all members of Congress! I wish I had a book like this while I was in graduate school! Superb!

Amazing Book - Best Macro Economic Policy Book on the Market

This is required reading for anyone concerned with today's economic uncertainty. Written in concise format which introduces the reader to two very fundamentally different economic models complete with easy to understand graphs. Brilliantly highlights impacts of government policies intertwined with real world corporate decision making processes. Easily understood by Governors and Grandmas alike!

Macroeconomic Theory for Everyone

Without taking any sides in the often heated battle over competing macroeconomic models, Prof. Langdana presents a well-written, easy to understand dissertation on the driving forces behind macroeconomic policy. Appropriate for readers of all types, from economics students and practitioners to business people who have a vested interest in the performance of world economies. There is useful discussion and analysis in every chapter.All bases are covered here, from Classical to Keynesian to Supply-side. Real life macroeconomic events such as the Great Depression are explored and analyzed through the lenses of the various models. The use of plain English and clear diagrams makes sophisticated macropolicy theories easy to digest.Prof. Langdana's imaginative prose brings the theoretical alive, and his clever use of simulated "news articles" to enhance the text and provide real world relevance to the discussions is a superb educational technique. To sum this book up in a single word - HUGE!
