Written in a calm, accessible voice, it helps readers understand the complex interaction between money, prices, and national finance in the years after war.

  • Explores the case for and against restoring a gold standard in a modern economy.
  • Discusses banking policy, debt, and the influence of public finance on monetary stability.
