A Letter to Robert Peel, on the Pernicious Effects of a Variable Standard of Value is a book written by Edward Copleston in 1819. In this book, Copleston addresses the issue of a fluctuating standard of value, arguing that it is detrimental to the economy and society as a whole. He specifically directs his letter to Robert Peel, who was a prominent British politician at the time and would later become Prime Minister. Copleston outlines the various negative consequences of a variable standard of value, including inflation, uncertainty in business transactions, and social unrest. He also proposes solutions to this problem, such as the adoption of a fixed standard of value based on gold or silver. Overall, A Letter to Robert Peel is a thought-provoking and insightful work that sheds light on an important economic issue that is still relevant today.Especially As It Regards The Condition Of The Lower Orders And The Poor Laws.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
