Other People's Money And How The Bankers Use It (1914)

""Other People's Money And How The Bankers Use It"" is a book written by Louis Dembitz Brandeis in 1914. The book is an analysis of the banking industry and its impact on the American economy. Brandeis, who was a lawyer and later a Supreme Court Justice, argues that the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few powerful bankers is a threat to democracy and the free market. He examines the practices of investment bankers, such as J.P. Morgan, and their use of other people's money to finance large-scale corporate mergers and acquisitions. Brandeis also discusses the role of the Federal Reserve System, which had been established only a few years prior to the book's publication. The book was controversial at the time of its publication and is still considered a seminal work on the role of banking in American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
