Int Econs Review

The book was recommended as a course requirement and I believe it has more than met the objective. Was delivered on schedule and in good condition

Great

This book shipped really quickly! However, it was not exactly the same book as pictured online (different cover) but was still the same edition. If your professor is very picky about which book to buy, check with the seller before purchasing .

solid foundation

This is an ideal introduction into international economics, as a theoretical study. It assumes only basic prior knowledge of microeconomics and macroeconomics, and is on undergraduate level. [It is not, however, enough as a prerequisite for more advanced books like Rogoff's Foundations of International Macroeconomics, which requires more advanced studies in macroeconomics and is much more mathematical.] The book is not mathematical, although basic formulae from micro & macro economics are frequently employed, but in a general manner - so a good memory of your basic economics or mathematical economics class is ideal. That said, the main tools used are graphs, which are analyzed. The explanations are quite straightforward, I never had any major problems understanding the concepts. What I liked about this book, besides the accessible writing style, is the thorough coverage, you get a solid foundation in other words. This is one of very few textbooks from uni that I decided to keep and not re-sell.

best introduction to international economics

I have taken a few international economics courses and of all the textbooks this was by far the easiest to read and understand. The authors do an excellent job of making the models clear by giving detailed examples. This is one book I am definitely not selling back to the bookstore at school.

A great resource

This text book is a wonderful resource for all wanting to learn more about economics in the international arena. It is packed full of facts, graphs, and explanations. One problem I did find in this book is that it tried cover too broad a field. If it would have concentrated on one specific topic like the international economics, and left out the finance, it could be a much stronger work. I grew tired of hearing "as you already know..." It could have not made so many assumtions about what students already knew and used the extra area to cover them. All in all, it was a helpful resource for extra learning, however, I would suggest looking further for a book that will stand alone in teaching an international economics course.
