This book is an extremely readable guide to the world of international finance by two former City Editors of The Times. It is designed for people who want to understand something of the worldâs financial affairs and learn how to follow jargon on the City pages of newspapers or money programmes on radio and television. Starting with the basic facts, the authors gently guide you through the worldâs money maze â" so that by the time you have reached the last chapter you should be able to understand the newspaper extracts printed at the end of the book.

The Worldâs Money aims to answer some of the many questions of the times in which it was published: Why had there been so many monetary crises? How were they caused? What is the role of gold in international finance? How do exchange rates, the IMF, the World Bank, the eurodollar market work? What is the new World Money? How was the pound devalued? Can 1929 recur?

The material is equally suitable for students, sixth-formers, economists and the armchair reader. Contemporary events are used as examples and illustrations, the history and the future of money discussed, so that the book is at once topical for its times and of lasting value.
