Add to basketFirst edition. 8vo. viii, 341, [1] pp. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt, fore and bottom edges untrimmed, blue coated endpapers (contemporary ownership inscription to front flyleaf, otherwise a near fine copy). London, John Murray. An interesting work on bimetallism by Leonard Darwin (1850-1943), son of Charles Darwin…, of which John Maynard Keynes would later write: "'His book appeared towards the end of the long controversy [on the use of both gold and silver as the basis for currencies]. But his statement of the conflicting arguments was so clear and unbiassed that it remained the standard text-book ? until questions on bimetallism had disappeared from the examination papers on economic theory.' Economic Journal, Dec 1943" (quoted in ODNB).
