Managing the Dollar - Softcover

The seven governors of the Federal Reserve Board play a powerful role in guiding the nation's economy. Their decisions directly affect the amount of money in circulation, the level of interest rates, and the functioning of the banking system and credit markets. The impact of their decisions can be measured in the success or failure of thousands of businesses, in fluctuations of prices and cost, in changes in family income and wealth, and in the rise and fall of stocks and bonds.

Sherman J. Maisel was an economist and former Governor of the Federal Reserve from 1965 to 1972.
