Sažetak
The book "The Economics of European Integration" in its fourth edition represents an improvement over the already successful and very popular third edition. In an intuitive and accessible way it gives the reader an insight into the facts, theories and controversies that are the driving force of rapid and constant changes within the European Union. Focusing on the latest developments in the eurozone, the book provides extra value which makes it worth obtaining a new edition. By combining the economic with historical, political and legal approaches Baldwin and Wyplosz have produced a comprehensive work that is accessible to a wider circle of readers and that makes it easier to understand the complicated process of European economic integration. The writing is not particularly challenging to read, it does not require advanced mathematic or econometric skills, but requires a knowledge of the basics of economics, microeconomics and macroeconomics. In any case, for anyone interested in the economic issues of the European Union and European economic integration, this book is an excellent starting point.
