Author Description

From a review of the first edition: "Extremely clearly written, pays great attention to real problems and real facts, and is biased very much in the direction of economics as a policy-making science...will appeal to a wide variety of readers."--The Economist. The Economic System in the U.K., Third Edition, reflects a changing world economic order. Major revisions have been made in all the existing chapters, and new chapters, such as "Patterns of Global Development," "International Demand Management," discuss events in the U.K. economy in the context of the larger European and international economics.
