Despite this, the principal regional economic  policy analysis model used throughout the United States by government  agencies, universities, and the private sector has not been presented  in a book until now. \u003cbr\u003e  The approach to building, understanding and using regional models  presented in \u003cem\u003eRegional Economic Models: A Systematic Approach to\u003c\/em\u003e  \u003cem\u003eForecasting and Policy Analysis\u003c\/em\u003e is progressive. It begins with  the simplest possible models and concludes with a full presentation of  the leading model used by policy makers today. The full details are  presented along with facilitating software, which is made available so  that the reader can build a prototype model for any state or country  and can perform policy simulations with full operational models for a  sample area. Policy studies are discussed that have been carried out  with the model, as well as the range of ways in which policies can be  tested through policy simulations. \u003cbr\u003e  The necessary background is developed for understanding the ways in  which models can be used to improve the basis upon which policies are  evaluated, as well as the sensitivity of the predicted effects to the  model chosen for the analysis. The presentation is multifaceted and  includes equations, diagrams and numerical examples. The professional  literature is integrated with introductory materials to produce the  first comprehensive book on regional modeling that extends from  economic base models to modeling advances that are currently being  published in economic journals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-10-03\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401728768\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-2874-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 506\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44395439554700,"sku":"9789401728768","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401728768_c431640d-4e6a-4f3a-8613-52b8d929ef0f.jpg?v=1755427723","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401728768","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
