This book was very helpful to me on a project of mine on credit cards.Mike Thornton knows his stuff! Great stories maginatively told. What a delightful surprise. I'll never think about money in the same way again.
A really interesting short read. Of course we know the general idea of how money started when we were still in school but there were a few facts that were mentioned in this book that were enlightening. But what I enjoyed most was the fun facts chapter. Certainly glad that our ATMs do not use radioactive inks anymore.

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.

I really did like the book although it took me awhile to get through it. It takes the reader from the times of bartering for goods and services all the way up to our electronic system that we have today. It talks a lot about the deflation of paper money due to the lack of metal assets (gold, silver, etc) and how that happened in the first place. There is a ton of info in the book it's at times overwhelming, but I did learn a great deal.
