The level and depth at which the text is written is excellent. It combines theoretical rigour with accessibility. The only book on the Economics of EMU worth buying, reading and recommending to students. * Robert Ackrill, Nottingham Trent University *The quality of the writing style is simply brilliant, and a major strength of the book: non technical though thorough, always relating concepts to the real world. Importantly, my students love it. * Jan Marc Berk, University of Groningen *
