Bernanke, Nobel Prize-winning economist and former chair of the U.S. Federal ReserveNobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman and his celebrated colleague Anna Jacobson Schwartzs landmark reinterpretation of the Great DepressionMilton Friedman and Anna Jacobson Schwartzs A Monetary History of the United States, 1867-1960 is one of the most influential economics books of the twentieth century. A landmark achievement, it marshaled massive historical data and sharp analytics to argue that monetary policy-steady control of the money supply-matters profoundly in the management of the nations economy, especially in navigating serious economic fluctuations. Perhaps no other chapter of this monumental book had a greater impact than The Great Contraction, 1929-33, which offered a fundamental reinterpretation of the central economic event of the twentieth century-the Great Depression. The Great Contraction, 1929-1933 presents that chapter, which runs to more than 200 pages, as a stand-alone book, in an edition that also features a new preface by Anna Jacobson Schwartz and a new introduction by the economist Peter Bernstein, both of which place the work and its lasting impact in context. In addition, the book includes a speech by Nobel Prize-winning economist and former chair of the Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke, in which he reflects on the continuing importance of Friedman and Schwartzs work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52340077068576,"sku":"USED0691137943","price":24.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71Be_LkVXjL.jpg?v=1789130529","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-great-contraction-1929-1933-new-edition-princeton-classic-editions-0691137943-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
