Fundamentals of Economics: The Essentials of Carl Menger - Softcover
Foundations of Economics: The Essence of Carl Menger is the first work in the Aprycot Media series of the same name – a compact insight into the original source of the Austrian School, directly aimed at understanding Bitcoin.
About the Book
Carl Menger (1840–1921), the founding father of the Austrian School, laid the groundwork for Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich Hayek with his theory of marginal utility and theory of value. His core argument: the value of a commodity does not depend on its form, but on its "saleability" – the more in demand, the more valuable. The direct precursor to understanding Bitcoin as a scarce, highly saleable good.
Reading Sample
"Instead of focusing on the nature or form of money, Menger examines the reasons for monetary exchange and why money is so valuable. His argument focuses on the 'saleability' of the goods traded – the more 'saleable' an item, the more money it is worth."
