Prof. Frederick Soddy's "Wealth, Virtual Wealth and
Debt" (320 pages) should be readily available at modest cost from:
Omni Publication/Christian Book Club of America,
P.O. Box 900566, Palmdale, CA 93590-0566, U.S.A., Tel/Fax: (661)
274-2240 Website: www.omnicbc.com
There are significant differences between Soddy and
Douglas. Social Credit does not require 100% reserve backing, does not
advocate "stable" prices but rather a variable and falling price-level and
provides for universal rather than selective Consumer Dividends, etc.
Social Credit does not share the Soddy position that new capital production
should be financed by genuine abstinence from consumption. U. S. Social
Credit leader Prof. Gorham Munson compares the two schools in his
"Aladdin's Lamp: The Wealth of the American People" (New York: Creative
Age Press, 1945, 420 pp.). Munson claims that by 1943 Soddy had moved
sufficiently toward the Douglas position that he was able to offer the following
endorsation to the Social Credit Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
(led by John Hargrave): "Science without Social Credit is sheer
suicide."

I don't know how it is in other countries,
but through interlibrary loan I can obtain almost any circulating book in any
library in the United States. They're in a database called OCLC
WorldCat.
