They explain in the clearest possible terms why money matters to all of us. We should want ‘good money’ (stable and reliable) and understand how poor quality money (inflationary and unstable) appears. The consequences are always damaging and can be devastating. But they could be avoided. If only policy makers would listen—to Brown and Pringle.” —Forrest Capie, Bayes Business School, City, University of London, UK “Brendan Brown and Robert Pringle give us a provocative conceptual, historical, and prospective discussion of how a “good money” regime would operate and how it might replace the distortions of the reigning practice of perpetual monetary depreciation. As the authors say, ‘The bad money establishment has obviously failed in the case of the pandemic inflation.’ Now is a perfect time for such fundamental thinking about a better monetary regime.” —Alex J.
