From the Journal of International Eeconomics' review:
“Perhaps the greatest merit of Frieden's book is that it allows the reader to see the themes of winners and losers, risk and uncertainty, integration, economic growth and technological change emerge clearly from the deep forest of contemporary history. One gains a greater appreciation for the timelessness of these phenomena and how to begin to get a grip on the bigger picture of policy making and the global economy.”
One of my personal favorites:
Global Capitalism, Its Fall and Rise in the Twentieth Century by Jeffry Frieden.
