A financial treatise written by British economist and politician Thomas Attwood, advocating for the establishment of a national bank in Scotland. Attwood's work details the flaws in the current banking system in Scotland and argues for the need for a more regulated and stable financial system. With clear arguments and straightforward language, this work is an important contribution to the history of economics in Britain.
This work is a series of letters exchanged between Arthur Young and Thomas Attwood on the topics of currency, population growth, and poverty in England in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The authors offer their views on the causes of poverty and offer proposals for social and economic reform.
