International Finance is an established and internationally renowned introduction to the subject. It draws on recent events to provide comprehensive coverage of traditional theories and new research relating to the balance of payments, exchange rate determination and the international monetary system.
Offering an extensive overview of the empirical evidence on the theories and concepts discussed, this textbook provides grounding in the fundamental features of international finance, from basic economic concepts to the various international crises of the twentieth century and into the effects and response to the Eurozone crises and Covid-19 pandemic.
Some sections are pretty good, with strong narrative to explain the intuition (especially the bit on the Balassa-Samuelson effect). However other parts of the book are very dry and dull. So I give this book two stars. Just ok.
