A History of INTEREST RATES
The late Sidney Homer published the First Edition of A History
of Interest Rates in 1963 because he believed that a comprehensive
history of this universal and basic economic and commercial price
was necessary. Now in its Fourth Edition, A History of Interest
Rates has become a classic in the fields of economics and
finance.

rate trends and lending practices spanning over four millennia of
economic history. Filled with in-depth insights and illustrative
charts and tables, this updated Fourth Edition provides a
historical perspective of interest rate movements as well as a new
chapter of contemporary material and added discussions of interest
rate developments over the past ten years.
