Introduction To Economic Growth by Charles I. Jones

A concise, graduate-level introduction to the theory and evidence on long-run economic growth, presenting core models (Solow-Swan and endogenous-growth frameworks), mechanisms such as capital accumulation, technological progress, human capital, and R&D, and tools like growth accounting and convergence analysis; the text builds intuition with formal models and empirical examples to explain cross-country differences in income, the drivers of sustained productivity improvements, and the policy and institutional factors that influence economic development over time.
