S.F. Goodman

Economics provides an introduction to modern economics in the context of commerce, financial markets, industry and government in local, national and international forums. The book includes topical examples and references and involves the reader in thinking about economic questions from new standpoints as well as from those of traditional theory. The book is ideal for those wishing to master the skills of the economist and a stimulus for those refreshing their knowledge.

This is a fully revised and updated edition of S.F. Goodman's popular book The European Community. Retitled to reflect recent changes, the book includes discussion of the 1996 Intergovernmental Conference to review the working of the Maastricht Treaty and prepare for the next stage of monetary union. The book applies economic theory in a clear, direct manner to major areas of interest such as foreign exchange markets, agriculture, trade, money and the ERM.
