About Richard Duncan
Author, Economist, Consultant, Speaker
Richard Duncan is the author of four books analyzing the causes and the effects of the economic crises that have brought the global economy to the brink of collapse during recent decades.
The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures (John Wiley & Sons, 2003, updated 2005), predicted the global economic disaster that began in 2008 with extraordinary accuracy. It was an international bestseller. The Corruption of Capitalism: A strategy to re-balance the global economy and restore sustainable growth (CLSA Books, 2009) described the long series of US policy mistakes responsible for the Crisis of 2008. The New Depression: The Breakdown Of The Paper Money Economy (John Wiley & Sons, 2012) introduced an important new analytical framework, The Quantity Theory of Credit, that explained all aspects of the global economic crisis that began in 2008: its causes, the rationale for the government’s policy response to the crisis, and likely future developments.

The Money Revolution: How to Finance the Next American Century
It would be very easy to dismiss the author as yet another modern monetary theorist, but this would be to miss this book's true value. The author offers a detailed study in monetary mechanics, dating back to the earliest days of the Federal Reserve system and tracing its various evolutions in the century since. He makes a convincing case that, up to a certain threshold, demand and supply shocks have a greater impact on inflation than changes in the money supply. Mr. Duncan also offers a timely reminder of the importance of public investment in innovation. For readers with an advanced understanding of economics, this is a volume that will reward patient study.
My one major criticism of this book is that the author has chosen to use the threat of strategic competition with China as the galvanising force for action. Given the manifest benefits to the US (and other countries) of investing in its domestic infrastructure and R&D, why does there need to be a "bogey man" t
