To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One of the reasons Friedman's book The Theory of the Consumption Function is so masterful is that the distributional foundation is clearly stated and investigated empirically with both macro and micro data, although not using pooled methods as advocated here. Other early works in demand analysis which estimated income elasticities from cross section data and applied them to time series analysis were Wold (1953) and various work of Stone, although these authors did not use aggregating models spe...cifically. A recent demand application of an exact aggregation model is Jorgenson, Lau, and Stoker (1979). 2. This critique applies equally well to studies of aggregate variables such as national income, total personal consumption expenditures, etc. 3. Ideally, one requires micro data from each period of the time series data in order to study the influence of all distributional movements. Unfortunately, this much data is generally not available. Some exceptions are the longitudinal, or panel data sets now available on wage rates, hours worked and demographic characteristics across families and over time.
