Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explains the history of currency from ancient to modern forms, discussing how it has evolved from a simple medium of exchange to the sophisticated systems in use today. The author delves into the development of theories on monetary policy, beginning with the quantity theory of money to todayâs purchasing power parity. A detailed analysis of monetary systems is provided, starting with bimetallism and following through to modern concepts like the gold exchange standard. The complications of the gold standard are examined using examples from the pre-World War era and how the system has been impacted by events like the World Wars and the Great Depression, ultimately leading to its collapse in 1971. The final chapters of the book detail the rise of the Federal Reserve System and how it has shaped monetary policy in the United States.
