Striding explores the modernization process by outlining the economics of  agriculture, growth theories of economic development, and problems with  growth.

During the last century, policy makers and  the public acquired a considerable interest in economics. As a result,  this heightened awareness enhanced the well-being of society.

In  1969, the Nobel Foundation initiated the new prize category of economic  sciences and started awarding the prize annually. At the forefront of  their field, prize winners have introduced many innovative ideas.  Moreover, an evaluation of their ideas reveals valuable nuggets to  enrich the professional lives of non-economists.

Drawing on publications written by the Laureates, Striding with Economic Giants presents the essence of their thoughts in easy-to-understand concepts  for the business and academic communities. This book is perfect for  business executives, public policy makers, and economics students.

It describes logic and experimental frameworks in mathematics, econometrics, behavior modeling, and game theory. Next, Striding presents microeconomic contributions, including production theory,  theory of institutions, fundamental ideas of markets, and consumerism.  Then, it reviews financial theory in capital markets, portfolio choice,  and asset pricing.

The book spotlights contributions  to the rule of law, public administration, and political science. It  also highlights a growing understanding of human capital by tracing  demographic trends and describing health, education, minority, and labor  economics. Enhancements to macroeconomic theory are featured in  economic mechanisms and cycles, managing the economy, and policy making.

Striding explores the modernization process by outlining the economics of  agriculture, growth theories of economic development, and problems with  growth. It illustrates contributions to international economics in  trade, finance, and global public policy. Finally, the book showcases  contributions to social justice in social equality, income  redistribution, and climate change.
