520 _a"Inflation has surged once again. People the world over are facing a poisonous new economic reality, one of heightened instability and the arbitrary creation of winners and losers. Caused as much by policy error as by the shocks stemming from Covid and Putin's invasion of Ukraine, inflation's toll is already too evident. Celebrated economist Stephen D. King, one of the few to warn ahead of time about the latest inflationary upheaval, identifies key lessons from the history of inflation that policy makers chose not to heed. From ancient Rome through the American Civil War and up to the asset bubbles of today, inflation stems from policy error, sovereign greed, and a collective loss of faith in currencies. 'We need to talk about inflation' cuts through centuries of bad judgement and misunderstanding, offering a means to intervene now - so we can begin to tackle the political and social upheaval unleashed by inflation."--
