The first 10% of the full text of this article appears below.

This book covers "the empirics, the theory, and international case studies of recessions and depressions" as a "contribution to the ongoing debate over the nature and causes of recessions and depressions" (p. xiv). It does this with non-technical narratives that can be understood by upper-level undergraduates and the general reader with some economics background: a welcome goal that the author achieves. Chapters include useful data tables and charts without being overwhelming and conclude with further reading suggestions.
