Abstract
:
"Salvatore's Second Edition of Introduction to International Economics provides a clear presentation of today's global economy with an aim toward explaining the workings of the world economy, the major benefits it provides to both people and nations, and the most serious problems it faces. This new edition seeks to make otherwise difficult economic principles easy to understand, from discussion of widespread downsizing and job insecurity in the United States to the globalization of capital markets and resource scarcity and environmental degradation. This text is easily accessible for economics, business, and political science majors alike."--BOOK JACKET.
