John Locke: Locke on Money

`excellent edition of Locke's contribution to monetary economics ... these volumes will provide the main source material for future scholarship'
The Economic History Review

`Patrick Hyde Kelly's splendid edition of the economic writings, which includes a number of pieces not previously published, as well as his own long and brilliant introduction, puts us in a better position to evaluate Locke as economist ... All will owe thanks to Patrick Hyde Kelly for his scrupulous editing of the text, his rich annotations and his exemplary introduction.'
William Letwin, Times Literary Supplement

`Dr Kelly's edition makes the student's task infinitely lighter than ever before ... the most elaborate edition of any seventeenth-century economic texts since Hull's Petty. Indeed the present volumes more than equal the Glasgow edition of Adam Smith in editorial completeness.'
Political Studies

`The introduction contains a great deal of specialist information on the political and economic context of Locke's interest, and the editing is meticulously done.'
Irish Economic and Social History

'Kelly's scholarly edition brings together Locke's early writings on interest'
