| Summary |
"For some it's the root of all evil. Others wished it grew on trees. Love it or loathe it, whatever your opinion of it is, money is as inescapable as death and taxes. But what exactly is money? Where did it come from? And where did it all go? In this fresh, revelatory series, historian and Harvard professor Niall Ferguson reveals everything you need know about money." -- website |
