Introduction to Quantitative Macroeconomics with Julia: State-of-the-Art Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Modelsfacilitates access to fundamental techniques in computational and quantitative macroeconomics. Modeling challenges make quantitative macroeconomics dynamic, yet few books provide macroeconomists with the basic tools to build, solve and simulate macroeconomic models. One of the book's most appealing elements is its focus on the recent and very promising software Julia, which offers a MATLAB-like language at speeds comparable to C/Fortran. It neatly fills the gap between intermediate macroeconomic books and modern DSGE models used in research.
Combines an introduction to Julia with the specific needs of macroeconomic students who are interested in DSGE models and PhD students and researchers interested in building DSGE models
Teaches fundamental techniques in quantitative macroeconomics by introducing theoretical elements of key macroeconomic models and their potential algorithmic implementations
Exposes researchers working in macroeconomic policy to the possibilities and limitations of DSGE models
