Ludwig Von Mises

The Theory of Money and Credit Ludwig Von Mises

From one of the preeminent theorists of the acclaimed Austrian school of economics, "The Theory of Money and Credit" represents a major contribution to the science of economics. Von Mises examines the value of money, how it can be measured, and the effects of credit and monetary policy at the nation-state level. Von Mises is well known for advocating a return to the gold standard as a way to eliminate the growth and recession cycles. Given the current economic crises, many people who want a better understanding of economics are turning back to this classic work in order to be better informed on the implications of monetary and credit policy.
