Includes frontispiece portrait of Professor Soddy. Frederick Soddy (1877-1956) was a prolific student of chemistry and radioactivity who received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1921. His work alongside Sir Ernest Rutherford proved that radioactivity is due to the transmutation of elements, which later led to developments in nuclear reactions. From 1914 until his retirement, Soddy worked as a Professor of Chemistry at various English institutions. During this time, Soddy turned his attention to economic theories based in his understanding of physics. He connected the ideas of energy and the economy, arguing that the economy is not a perpetual motion machine, but was a system that would halt its generation of wealth. This work focuses on the development of money systems in the world, and how the exponential growth of industrial production did not align with the money systems of the time.
