N2  - This book is a competent and highly readable history of the postwar international monetary system, focusing on the political obstacles to reform of monetary arrangements between the U.S and Western Europe. It contends that the origins of current international economic disorders must be found in the failure of the Bretton Woods system and the U.S policy of restoring an open world economy in the midst of the Cold War
