Three of his important books are: Recursive Macroeconomic Theory, The Big Problem of Small Change, and The Conquest of American Inflation. All PhD students and staff are cordially invited to attend these lectures (free of charge). Please register with Elli Hoek van Dijke (even when one can only attend part of the lectures). Two introductory lectures on Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Models will be presented by professor Herman K. van Dijk.
