Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is the first substantial overview of the prospects for monetary union in Europe post-Maastricht. It provides careful and thorough analysis for the business, industrial and government communities for whom union, and progress towards it, will be a key factor in their success in the 1990s and beyond. Written in non-technical terms, it is an informative and accessible account of this vital issue.
