More information

Now more than ever we worry about money. We are all involved with our mortgages, savings, debts and pensions, in a bizarre system that operates ostensibly in our name. It is complicated, more than a little insane, and it operates in a dream world above people’s ordinary lives. Those who purport to understand the way the money system works are left bemused. The rest of us feel angry but ignorant.

This book will tell you where money comes from, what it means, what it is doing to the planet and what we might be able to do to change this. It will also brief you for the emerging debate about money after the financial crash and it will tell you the truth that politicians and brokers alike prefer not to think about too much - the way they have lost control of a gigantic financial system that could enrich or impoverish us all in seconds


"David Boyle is the finest radical voice of this generation."

"This wry little book will tell you where money comes from, what it means, what it’s doing to the planet and what we can do to make the financial system serve the real interests of humanity again."
