Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explains the evolution of 'money' from its humble beginnings with barter up to the present day. The author explores the vital role of money as not only a medium of exchange but a common denominator of values and standard of deferred payments. In addition, it offers insights into the challenges of bimetallism and the importance of 'standard' coins having intrinsic metallic value equal to the value stamped upon them. The author concludes by discussing the complexities of paper money, its advantages over metallic currency, and the three forms it predominantly takes.
