Synopses & Reviews
This fourth edition of Understanding the World Economy will continue to provide the reader with the clearest guide available to the global economic scene.
Since the last edition was published in 2006, enormous changes have taken place. Globalization has continued but been tempered by financial crisis. China has asserted herself as a new economic superpower and India and Brazil are not far behind. Security continues to be a major concern and environmental concerns have become more pressing.
Tony Cleaver has carried out a necessary comprehensive update for the new edition to reflect these issues and the text continues to be the best, non-technical introduction to a complex topic.
