Dictionary of Modern Economics

"The Macmillan Dictionary of Modern Economics" is an up-to-date, authoritative reference book designed primarily for the needs of students of economics, but invaluable also to students of business and other social sciences and indeed to anyone who wants a brief explanation of some economic concept. There are approximately 2,800 entries, covering theory, national and international institutions, schools of thought and important economists up to recent Nobel Prize winners. In addition, it supplies comparative statistics on major economic variables for selected countries and sets out the origins of widely used acronyms. This fourth edition includes many new and revised entries. New authors provide the necessary international expertise for the dictionary content to respond to changes in the structure of the international economy.
