Windows on the World Economy: An Introduction to International Economics

by Kenneth A. Reinert

This text is designed for courses in which business, public policy, and often social science students need to understand the impact of international economics. Therefore, the economic theory is low-level, but it is very applied with an emphasis on managerial or public policy decision-making. For instance, the book gives heavier treatment to international production and international development than most international economics texts.
