The Standard Of Value (1912) - David Barbour - Bog

The Standard of Value, written by David Barbour and published in 1912, is a book that explores the concept of value and its role in economics. Barbour argues that the standard of value, or the measure by which we determine the worth of goods and services, is essential to the functioning of a healthy economy. He examines various historical and contemporary standards of value, including gold, silver, and paper currency, and considers their advantages and disadvantages. Barbour also discusses the role of government in establishing and maintaining a standard of value, and the potential consequences of not having a reliable standard. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both economists and lay readers interested in the topic of value and its importance in economic systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
