The World Economy: A Millennial Perspective : a millennial perspective

The World Economy brings together two reference works by Angus Maddison: The World Economy: A Millennial Perspective, first published in 2001 and The World Economy: Historical Statistics, published in 2003. This new edition contains Statlinks, a service providing access to the underlying data in Excel format. The World Economy is a "must" for scholars and students of economics and economic history as well as for statisticians, while the casual reader will find much of fascinating interest.
