Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - '.the government could have been debt free long before 1914, could have saved billions of dollars in interest, and could have had billions remaining for public improvements or for reductions in taxes. But the bankers triumphed over common sense and the public interest: banks created money apace, and the government created none. A more inane and shameful abnegation of government power is hardly imaginable.' William F. Hixson This book discusses crucial monetary events in Colonial America, the United States, and Great Britain over the period 1690 to 1914. It explains some general characteristics of money and its function, the impracticality and undesirability of a gold or silver standard, and how a change in the quantity of money affects the total output of an economy and the level of prices of goods and services. It argues that by 1914 bankers had virtually complete control of the money-creation process and that this was largely the cause of the cataclysm of 1929 and the ensuing years. It contends that the system is still in effect. Journal of Economic Literature Vol.32, No. 1, March 1994 Anyone who seeks to understand 'the preposterous financial system' which evolved after 1690 cannot do better than to start here. Hixson interweaves economic history with evaluations of theories of the leading economists starting with Adam Smith. The chapters on the financing of the American Revolution and the Civil War are particularly fascinating. Dr. John H. Hotson Department of Economics University of Waterloo, Ontario.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - William Hixson's A Matter of Interest is a good example of the important contribution that an independent scholar can make to a subject where the professionals have become dependent on an orthodoxy which has been highly insensitive to criticism. Hixson's position is that the dynamics of debt creates a strong tendency for an increasing burden on a society which looks as if it can only be corrected by occasional catastrophe. There is much historical evidence to support this thesis. It represents an important tradition in economics, going back to Henry Simons and to Irving Fisher, which has been strangely neglected by the profession. Professional economists will find some things in this book with which they will disagree, but the general thesis presents a very important challenge to them, and this is a work that should be taken very seriously. Kenneth E. Boulding Distinguished Professor of Economics University of Colorado at Boulder In A Matter of Interest William Hixson presents a very interesting analysis of our economic systems. Hixson's analysis is highly original, well written, and comprehensible even for readers not well versed in economics. His frequent references to the great thinkers in economics give the argument a lot of depth. Robert Guttmann Professor of Economics Hofstra University Hempstead, NY.…
