Review of the hardback: 'Serious scholarship on central banking has burgeoned in recent years, thanks in no small measure to the authors represented in this timely volume. Because it arrives just as the challenges to central banking are reaching unprecedented heights, every student of central banking should keep a copy handy.' Alan S. Blinder, Princeton University Review of the hardback: 'Central banks are under the spotlight - and under the gun - as a result of extraordinary actions taken in response to the financial crisis. Interest in questions like whether they should attempt to anticipate and how they should respond to threats to financial stability and whether they are sufficiently accountable for their steps and missteps now extends far beyond the standard scholarly circles. As more people begin to worry about these issues, one hopes that they will look to the important and timely studies collected here.' Barry Eichengreen, University of California, Berkeley Review of the hardback: 'This fine collection of essays provides a state-of-the-art guide to the hottest issues in central banking. No practitioner or policymaker can afford to be without it.' Andrew Rose, University of California, Berkeley Review of the hardback: 'This is an amazing book that deciphers the amazing transformation of central banking since the 1980s. It brings together leading economists, many of whom were instrumental in this transformation as researchers, central bankers, and teachers, often combining these roles. The result is a very effective shortcut to a huge literature.' Charles Wyplosz, Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva, Switzerland
