Handbook of International Economics

"...a must-have reference book for all those who are engaged in researching India's economy that is today plagued by widening current account deficit, falling currency, high inflation, not-too-comfortable fiscal deficiencies..." --The IUP Journal of Applied Economics, Vol. XIII, No. 4, 2014

"...this book is an accolade worth having by every front-end researcher, for it offers on a platter the current status of research in international economies." --The IUP Journal of Applied Economics, October 2014

"Since the last volume of the Handbook of International Economics appeared nearly two decades ago, researchers in the field have made massive intellectual progress on topics ranging from firm-level dynamics, to empirical trade models, to financial crises, to global capital-flow imbalances. This fourth volume of the Handbook provides the clear and comprehensive update that students and researchers have so urgently needed." --Maurice Obstfeld, University of California, Berkeley

"The Handbook series is like the Olympic games of economics: drawing together all the star contributions of international economics in single location, with a unifying notation and modeling framework. This volume will be indispensable reading for faculty and advanced students alike and will influence the field for years to come." --Robert C. Feenstra, University of California, Davis

"Volume 4 is as indispensable and comprehensive as ever, yet fully updated for the perspectives, issues and important empirical realities in international economics today. Every academic who touches these fields will want to read it." --Kenneth A. Froot. Harvard Business School

"This volume sustains the tradition of excellence of earlier Handbooks of International Economics. The reader is expertly brought up to date on those areas of international economics which have taken giant leaps forward - globalization, determinants of trade flows, preferential trade arrangements, sovereign debt, financial crises, and more. The volume is a must-have refernce for economists wanting to catch up with the field." --Anne Krueger, Johns Hopkins University
