"Professor Y. C. Jao's book is a comprehensive, timely, and well-balanced account and assessment of Hong Kong's experience during the East Asian Currency Crisis of 1997-99. The author explains in detail how the Hong Kong dollar's fixed peg to the U.S. dollar has successfully weathered the crisis but he also shows that Hong Kong has had to pay a heavy price for it. He argues, persuasively, that by holding firm its exchange rate and defending the peg successfully, Hong Kong has contributed significanlty to the stabilization of the affected East Asian economies and to the eventual easing of the crisis. This book is a must-read for all economists interested in Hong Kong and East Asia."-Lawrence J. Lau Kwoh-Ting Li Professor of Economic Development Stanford University Ler mais...
