Assuming a minimum exposure to Principles of Microeconomics, this book reviews economic models and presents theories to explain the benefits and goals of trade between countries. It is rigorous and unique in its presentation of stories about countries in today's world. In addition to real-world stories, the text also offers standard theoretical constructs and economic models.
