About This Item
London: Penguin Books, 2009. Second Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Very mild bump on some corners. ; Niall Ferguson (The Square and the Tower: Networks and Power, from the Freemasons to Facebook). Niall Ferguson follows the money to tell the human story behind the evolution of our financial system, from its genesis in ancient Mesopotamia to the latest upheavals on what he calls Planet Finance. What's more, Ferguson reveals financial history as the essential backstory behind all history, arguing that the evolution of credit and debt was as important as any technological innovation in the rise of civilization. As Ferguson traces the crisis from ancient Egypt's Memphis to today's Chongqing, he offers bold and compelling new insights into the rise? And fall of not just money but Western power as well. -; B&W Photographs; 8.3 X 5.5 X 1.1 inches; 496 pages DC4.
