"Economic and monetary union (EMU) will have farreaching consequences for participating nations in Europe. This book contains a unique and editorially neutral collection of key arguments favouring and opposing British membership. The economic and policy implications are evaluated by distinguished economists, whilst the impact upon national sovereignty and the world of work is debated by prominent MPs and representatives of business and trade union organizations. The text provides an unbiased, comprehensive and readable resource for specialist students and a general readership."--BOOK JACKET.
