More About the Author

Friedrich August Hayek (1899-1992), recipient of the Medal of Freedom in 1991 and co-winner of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 1974, was a pioneer in monetary theory and the principal proponent of libertarianism in the twentieth century. He taught at the University of London, the University of Chicago, and the University of Freiburg. His influence on the economic policies in capitalist countries has been profound, especially during the Reagan administration in the U.S. and the Thatcher government in the U.K.

This review is from: Denationalization of Money: An Analysis of the Theory and Practice of Concurrent Currencies (Hobart Papers) (Paperback)

I was able to obtain my copy from the London School of Economics.

Thomas Greco's writings are more available and just as good (at
least on this single topic - the creation of money).

Hayek's Denationalization of Money is a pivotal piece and a
must read for the student of what money is, who gets to create
it, and how to obtain more freedom for everyone.
