The author's model builds on the idea that, in this period, German prices were sticky, or slow to change, due to adjustment costs for firms. The author then incorporates this model into a broader theoretical context, considering other variables such as changes in import prices and real wages. The book also explores the short-run nominal rigidities and long-run neutrality the model exhibits, meaning that one-off changes in money supply have real effects, while changes in the rate of money supply growth do not. The author estimates the model using econometric methods, rejecting a simpler version of the model where prices are perfectly flexible, finding evidence of exchange rate overshooting, and showing that the real exchange rate depreciated on impact in response to an increase in Germany's money supply. The book concludes by highlighting the significance of its findings for understanding exchange rate dynamics and sticky prices.
