Editorial Reviews:
Product Description This book provides an analysis of the history of European monetary union, from the early days of the European Payments Union following the collapse of the Bretton Woods System in the 1960s to the current debate about the desirability of a single currency and a European Central Bank. The authors assess the record so far and suggest the likely timetable for monetary union in Europe with an analysis of the costs and benefits of the various options. It includes analysis of monetary reform in Eastern Europe and an appendix on monetary union in Germany. It is aimed at students of international and monetary economics and European integration as well as at professional economists.

Customer Reviews: thorough historical and institutional analysis November 6, 1999 Willem Noe (Berlin) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As an economist at the EC I found this book a good reference work on EMU, strong especially on the history of ERM and EMU and the institutional set-up of both. The arguments pro and con on EMU were well presented and often subtle. Overall highly recommended as textbook for graduate students and professional economists.
