Recenzii

"To the handbook's credit, Parker and Whaples take an expansive view of the term "event." Instead of restricting the handbook to events that are focused in time, they open it up to broader events that play out over many years. […] Each chapter stands alone and is written so that previous knowledge of the time period is helpful but not necessary. The handbook thus stands as a useful reference tool for anyone who wants to know more about key historical events, as well as those who need a starting place for their own research." - Matthew Jaremski, Colgate University| published in Journal of Economic Literature (Vol. 54, No. 2)
"This handbook will serve as an important historical reference as well as provide readers with insight concerning current economic affairs in the US and rising world economies...These historical essays provide a valuable understanding of today's economy. Summing Up: Highly recommended." - R.T. Sweet, Hood College | published in Choice (Vol. 51 No. 6)
