The Theory of Money and Credit

Ludwig Von Mises Β· 1953
81/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Mises's 1912 treatise is the foundational document of Austrian School monetary economics, and over a century of continuous relevance to debates about credit, inflation, and banking is a remarkable achievement for any work of economic theory. This is dense academic writing β€” not for general readers β€” but for serious students of monetary theory it remains essential and genuinely original.
