This work for scholars, economists, non-economists, and policymakers argues that theory, historical experience, and economic indicators point to the likelihood that the US will slide into
hyperinflation and asks whether quantitative easing is to blame. The book seeks to be accessible by avoiding technical jargon and explaining first principles for the general reader, but also
uses equations that can only be understood by an economist. The book begins with a review of key concepts, measurement, theories, consequences, and costs of inflation, then discusses the
concept and history of hyperinflation, looks at hyperinflation in countries around the world since the 1970s, and offers predictions of how and why hyperinflation with hit America. The book
concludes that hyperinflation with appear in the US eventually with or without quantitative easing. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
