The purpose of this Work is to exhibit tlie Juridical and Scieutific Principles and Mechanism of the great System of Credit- or the Commerce in Rights of Action, which com- prehondB Mercantile Credit - the colossal business of Banking - ami the Foreign Exchanges - and also to investigate the canses of Commercial Crises and Monetary Panics, and to show how they are to be brought under Scientific Control. And to explain the reasoning by which in 1856 I demonstrated that a proper adjustment of the Rate of Discount by the State of the Bullion in the Bank and the State of the Foreign Exchanges is the true and sole method of controlling Credit and the Paper Currency, which is now universally acknowledged to be true, and by which the Bank of England and every Bank in the world is now managed.

MACLEOD, Henry Dunning was born in 1821 in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 1843, 1863.
Whilst his work on banking was widely appreciated in his day, as an economist he was shunned by the establishment and failed to obtain a university chairman (His implication in the failure of the Royal British Bank had brought him a conviction for conspiracy to defraud, which partially explains his isolation.) Though an original thinker, particularly on the theory of value, his frequently restated views failed to be accepted as the new departure which he claimed them to be. He was responsible for the invention of the term ‘Gresham’s Law’.
Lawyer.
Employed by Government, to prepare digest of laws on bills of exchange,1868-1870.
