210 x 135 mm; laminated wrappers; pp. xi + (i) + 180, incl. index; graphs and tables. Wrappers a little rubbed; slightly sunned on spine. Very good condition. "Inflation, exchange rates, business cycles, income tax, fiscal policy . we are bombarded with these terms every day - by newspapers, radio and TV - but what do they actually mean? And how do they impact on you? In this thoroughly updated edition of Everyone's Guide to the South African Economy, all these issues - and more - are addressed. The book clearly explains and evaluates a wide range of economic occurrences - from the budget and the rand/dollar exchange rate to the balance of payments and the role of the South African Reserve Bank. Taking into account the changing economic landscapes in South Africa and the world, the guide also assesses South Africa's performance since 1994, pointing out that it is not all doom and gloom.".

In this updated edition of Everyone’s Guide to the South African Economy, all these issues - and more - are addressed. The book clearly explains and evaluates a wide range of economic occurrences - from the budget and the rand/dollar exchange rate to the balance of payments and the role of the South African Reserve Bank.
The book investigates the causes and consequences of the 2008/2009 global financial and economic crisis, looks at the sub-Saharan African economy, and explores human development issues in South Africa and their implications for policy-making.
If you are baffled by the specialised jargon of economists and bankers and want to know more about the economic forces that subtly dictate your day-to-day existence, Everyone’s Guide to the South African Economy will put you in the picture. This is essential reading for every South African consumer and taxpayer. Economics, after all, is too important to be left to economists.
