International Finance - Theory and Policy

Intermediate-level international economics texts seem to fall into one of two class. Some are written for students who may one day continue in advanced training and develop advanced general equilibrium models and use sophisticated mathematics. Other intermediate texts are written for noneconomics majors and present descriptive information about the world and the bare basics about how economic models are used to describe that world. This text strives to reach a median between both approaches.
