The Economic Merry-Go-Round (RLE: Business Cycles): A New Theory of Trade Cycles with the Document of History as Proof (Routledge Library Editions: Business Cycles)

Originally published in the Great Depression this accessible volume was aimed not only at the academic economist, but also the general reader. The cycles of panic, boom and bust are discussed and solutions provided as to how to get over the bust periods as efficiently as possible. The commodities of wheat and gold are discussed in detail, and comparisons made between UK and US budget surpluses and deficits.
