| Description: | Select Guide Rating Half fable, half manifesto, this brilliant new take on the ancient concept of cash lays bare its unparalleled capacity to empower and enthral us. Frederick Kaufman tackles the complex history of money, beginning with the earliest myths and wrapping up with Wall Street''s byzantine present-day doings. Along the way, he exposes a set of allegorical plots, stock characters, and stereotypical metaphors that have long been linked with money and commercial culture. The Money Plot offers a tool to see through the haze of modern banking and finance, demonstrating that the standard reasons given for economic inequality are contingent upon structures people have designed. |
