The treasure of traffike
1641. Roberts, Lewes
The author who was the member of the East India Company and the Levant company wrote this book to explain a commercial function and advocate practical method for developing it, for example, free export of gold and silver, reduction of custom duties and exclusion of monopoly and individual patent right. He accepted the need of the national control to commerce, therefore protected the trade company which had the restrictions of area rather than each trader as a commercial organization form.
