Abstract

My first publications were in this field and I am still cultivating it, 55 years later. My first book was on the gold-exchange standard. This book had developed from a seminar paper, done in 1922, and from my doctoral dissertation, completed in 1923. It was published in 1924, with the imprint 1925. Perhaps a brief description of Europe at that time can show how the book fitted in its time.
