Getting a firm grasp of the constantly changing and rapidly expanding list of economic terminology can be overwhelming at best, seemingly impossible at worst. This invaluable new reference from the publishers of The Economist makes staying on top of key terms and concepts not only a feasible prospect, but an easy one.
Providing a wealth of essential information in an accessible, user-friendly format, the Dictionary of Economics is packed with more than 1,500 entries that cover everything from acceleration principle, fiscal drag, and marginal utility to ploughing back, saddle point, and yield curve. Featuring a unique "micro-encyclopedic" treatment with extensive cross-referencing and up-to-date institutional material, it encompasses a wide range of topics, including international, monetary, and welfare economics, as well as the historical development of the science of economics. Additionally, it gives priority to recent developments in economic theory and, in keeping with global trends in the field, emphasizes international aspects of the subject.
Easy to use, precise, and exhaustive, the Dictionary of Economics is an indispensable "go-to" resource for business executives, investors, and students alike.
THE ECONOMIST, launched in 1843, is the most authoritative and influential international news and business magazine, and is widely read by top decision makers across the world.
