    Praise for International Economic Indicators and Central  Banks      "Anne Picker's International Economic Indicators and Central Banks  is a tour de force. It brings together a wealth of information,  explanation, and guidance, which has hitherto only been available  from disparate and frequently obscure sources, and does so with  great clarity and authority. It will be an invaluable resource not  only for investors but for all others involved in the fields of  finance and economics."  --Donald R. Anderson, OBE FRSE (UK), International Economics  Advisor, formerly chief economist, Courtaulds Group    "Picker's book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the  workings of key central banks, and to the economic data that  informs their thinking and policy formation. The book should be  required reading for those with more than a passing interest in  financial markets and monetary policy formation."  --George Worthington, Chief Economist, Asia Pacific, Thomson-IFR  (Australia)    "International Economic Indicators and Central Banks is an  invaluable guide for anyone doing business overseas or investing in  international markets. It is thorough and precise enough for  professional economists yet readily accessible to business people  and investors. Anne Picker is not only an excellent communicator  who demystifies central bank operations and technical economic  indicators; she is also a top-notch economist with extensive  experience in analyzing them. Don't read any international economic  analysis without this volume close at hand."  --David A. Levy, Chairman, The Jerome Levy Forecasting Center
