Falling Prices, and the Remedy

Originally published in 1886, this book is a fascinating historical document that offers insights into economic debates of the late 19th century. George argues that falling prices are a sign of economic progress, and that attempts to artificially prop up prices through government intervention are misguided and ultimately harmful. His insights remain relevant today, as policymakers continue to grapple with issues of monetary policy and inflation.
