Summary

This text strives to bring money and banking up-to-date by providing complete, integrated coverage of topics that are important to the twenty-first century world of money and banking. While covering the myriad topics appropriate for a money and banking course, the book is the first in the field to fully integrate coverage of international financial markets and the global economy from the outset. It also gives considerable attention to the ways in which new technologies are affecting the practice of banking, the nature of money, and the tasks of policymakers, and is the first and only text on the market to offer a fully-integrated program of accompanying online resources and multimedia tools that enhance a student's study of money and banking.
