More Description"Over the centuries, gold and freedom have been intimately related, and I suspect that will be the case for a long, long time to come." These words were written in 1978 by Edward C. Harwood, a 20th century economist, philosopher and investment advisor. This book outlines, in layperson's terms, many of Harwood's ideas on the philosophy of science, the fundamentals of economics and the investment strategy to which they lead. His life and times happen to encompass the events and policy decisions that spawned our current economic quandary. Given this connection, given also that the science of economics has progressed relatively little over the past 30 years, and, finally, given that policymakers are making the same mistakes they made 80 years ago, Harwood's views are just as timely today as they were during his lifetime.
