Description
Inflation Matters (2015) takes what’s often presented as a dense and complicated – not to mention boring – subject and turns it into something anyone can understand. Using simple, clear explanations, it presents the reasons why inflation exists, what and who perpetuates it, and how it impacts both the economy and society as a whole. Analyzing historical trends, it also presents a theory that inflation tends to follow a wavelike pattern over time – but that it doesn’t necessarily need to remain that way.
