International Economics, Second Edition, is a survey of international economics with a flexible approach that accommodates the needs of economics non-majors and majors alike. Students who have had a principles of economics course will easily understand the presentation of international economics in Gerber's text. The author addresses the needs of a heterogeneous student audience in a non-technical international economics course while focusing on institutions, policy, and real-world case studies. The book has received accolades from many instructors, who have praised it as mainstream, up-to-date, and easily comprehensible.
