圣智学习

《国际经济学》从两个方面阐述了国际经济学理论：国际贸易关系和国际货币关系。全书讲述了国际经济学领域内研究的五大热点问题：经济活动的全球化问题，自由贸易和生活质量的关系问题，发展中国家与工业化国家之间的贸易冲突问题，世界贸易组织与区域性贸易协定解度的贸易自由化问题以及作为主要货币的美元的作用和地位问题。全书的突出物点是紧密联系实践，理论和方法的阐述通谷易懂。如作者罗伯特·J·凯伯教授在《国际经济学》的前言中所说：“我相信，把一门专业课的知识在实践中的应用讲授给学生，是激励他们学习这门课程的最好方式”。
《国际经济学》非常适合我国高等院校经济管理专业本科生作为《国际经济学》教材使用，也可供从事国际经济学研究的人员参考。
