Product Description

Economics of Money, Banking, and Financial Markets heralded a dramatic shift in the teaching of the money and banking course in its first edition, and today it is still setting the standard. By applying an analytical framework to the patient, stepped-out development of models, Frederic Mishkin draws students into a deeper understanding of modern monetary theory, banking, and policy. His landmark combination of common sense applications with current, real-world events provides authoritative, comprehensive coverage in an informal tone students appreciate. Mishkin’s previous post as Executive Vice President and Director of Research at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York lends an insiders-view that helps to demystify this key institution for students.

Great Book!

great book for finance/money
I am a student in Romania and I always feel uncomfortable about spending the 20 dolars needed to pay for some of the coursebooks that our teachers recommend. I always feel that i'm probably going to toss any coursebooks in the attick once i'm done with it. But after reading a few excerpts from Mishkin's book, I felt like spending six times the amount would be a worthwhile investment. And I have not regretted it since! It is an excellent book for anyone looking to learn more about modern financial systems and finance in general. The fact that makes it such a great book is that mishkin actually wants you to understand what he's taling about by using an accessible vocabulary and lots of examples.
