Book excerpt: This 21st edition of the NBER Macroeconomics Annual treats many questions at the cutting edge of macroeconomics that are central to current policy debates.

The last two papers analyze theoretical developments in optimal taxation policy and equilibrium yield curves. Daron Acemoglu is Charles P. Kindleberger Professor of Applied Economics at MIT.
