The No-Nonsense Guide to Global Finance

By Stalker Peter

	9.50 E

As you'd expect from the title, it's a very digestable overview of the international finance system, starting from what 'money' actually is, through the increasingly weird and wonderful activities of banks, to the root causes and effects of the recent mess. As such, it's a great introduction, very clearly written, and spiced with some fascinating historical nuggets - it's a rare treat to have such lucid accounts of both the origins of money itself, and the origins of the credit crunch.

Tim Chapman, writer and photographer.
