This concise overview of the German 'Economic Miracle' of the post-World War Two reconstruction years argues that the German ecoonomy was in a far healthier position at the end of the war than previously thought, and that the preconditions for growth - a skilled and abundant labour supply and a favourable international political climate - facilitated the phenomenal 'recovery' and economic growth that was to follow.
Rezensionen / Stimmen

History '... [an] excellent book.' Journal of European Economic History 'Presents an economic history of West Germany from 1945-1955 that is accessible to the nonspecialist reader.'
