“Reich has performed a valuable service in surveying and categorizing the extensive literature on seigniorage. Anglophone readers, in particular, will benefit from exposure to a wide range of sources that might not otherwise come to their attention.” (David Glasner, Journal of the History of Economic Thought, June 2, 2020)
