Economics of Monetary Union by Paul De Grauwe
The eleventh edition of Economics of Monetary Union provides a concise analysis of the theories and policies relating to monetary union. The author addresses current issues surrounding the Eurozone, including; a critical discussion of the costs and benefits of possible exits by its member countries, an analysis of the role of the ECB as new single supervisor and detail on the sovereign debt crisis. In Part One the author examines the implications of adopting a common currency, assessing the benefit to each country from being a member of the Eurozone, whilst also questioning whether other parts of the world would gain from monetary unification. Part Two of the book looks at the problems of running a monetary union by analysing Europe's experience and the issues faced by the European Central Bank.
This continues to be the best book on the market on the Economics of EMU, regularly updated, well-grounded in theory, and with even complex ideas extremely clearly explained.. * Professor Rob Ackrill, Nottingham Trent University *
This textbook is essential and unique in its coverage of the most recent institutional changes within the European Monetary Union, including a reflection on the banking union and the role of lender of last resort for the ECB.

In my opinion this is the best text book on the European Monetary Union on the market. * Dr Bruce Morley, University of Bath *
