Drawing Extensively Upon Empirical Evidence And Informing Their Systematic Analysis With Insights From Contemporary Economic Theory, Findlay And O'Rourke Demonstrate The Close Interrelationships Of Trade And Warfare, The Mutual Interdependence Of The World'S Different Regions, And The Crucial Role These Factors Have Played In Explaining Modern Economic Growth.Power And Plenty Is A Mustread For Anyone Seeking To Understand The Origins Of Today'S International Economy, The Forces That Continue To Shape It, And The Economic And Political Challenges Confronting Policymakers In The Twentyfirst Century.
