William Easterly and Ross Levine
document five stylized facts about growth and argue that
they imply a bigger role for total factor productivity (tfp)
and technology than for physical and human capital. The
reader agrees with the first four of their facts and
believes facts one and three provide strong support for
their conclusion that tfp should be the focus of growth research.
