Description: This history of international monetary thought from the end of the
nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century provides
the most comprehensive survey of the literature on the theory of
international finance yet produced. The author argues that progress
in the field has not been linear and classifies the literature
according to groupings of ideas and personalities rather than
chronologically. After a brief survey of the Classical doctrines,
she examines the developments of all the main schools through the
Neoclassicals, the Keynesians, and the New Classicals.
