Ferdinand Lips Institute preserves gold advocate's work on the Internet
9p ET Friday, June 11, 2010
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
The work of the late Swiss gold advocate, banker, economist, and philosopher Ferdinand Lips has been preserved by his daughter Barbara and his friends and students at the Lips Institute, whose Internet site has just become operational. Barbara writes that the Lips Institute hopes to make its Internet site a meeting place for "investors, mining companies, market specialists, journalists, opinion leaders, and institutions of learning from around the world that devote their attention to the most precious of metals."
While Lips' health prevented him from attending GATA's Gold Rush 21 conference in Dawson City, Yukon Territory, in August 2005, the speech he prepared for the conference, "Three Revolutions," was delivered by his business partner, J.P. Schumacher, and its text is among the documents archived at the Lips Institute site. The speech can be found here:

Lips' 2001 book "Gold Wars" mentions GATA's work prominently and information about it can be found here:

The Lips Institute site is posted in English and German and you can find its home page here:
