A Discourse Upon Usury: By Way of Dialogue and Orations for the Better Variety and More Delight of All Those That Shall Read This Treatise (1572)

Written in 1572 and originally published in 1962, this book is a reprint of A Discourse uppon Usurye by waye of Dialoge and Oracions by Dr. Thomas Wilson. The book is typical of one side in the discussion of credit and money-lending, which was a characteristic phase in the early history of financial capitalism, and which, after the enclosures, provided the principal economic controversy of the sixteenth century.
