When Robert Z. Aliber's The International Money Game first appeared in 1973, it was widely acclaimed as the best - and most entertaining - introduction to the arcane mysteries of international finance on the market. The 6th edition of this classic work has again been fully rewritten to take account of the immense changes in the world economy since the previous edition - financial globalization; post-communist transition; European integration; the Asian crisis and Chinese liberalization. A substansive preface surveys the great changes in the 25 years since the book first appeared. But as in previous editions, Aliber's aim is not just to be topical. His witty, perceptive and authoritative book focuses on fundamentals, on 'how the pieces fit'. He thus provides an indispensable and highly readable guide to the complex and increasingly fragile system through which the world's business is financed.
ROBERT Z. ALIBER is Professor International Trade and Finance at the University of Chicago. He has been a Professor at the Salzburg Seminar in American Studies, Visiting Scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, and a consultant to various agencies of the US government. Among his previous books are Monetary Reform and World Inflation, National Monetary Policies and the International Financial System and Reconstruction of International Monetary Arrangements.
