    omkar k. edited the summary of The Ascent of Money 2 weeks ago.

    • Bread, cash, dosh, dough, loot, call it what ever you like, it matters now more than ever. in The Ascent of Money, Niall Ferguson shows that financial history is the back-story to all history.
      From the banking dynasty who funded the Italian Renaissance to the stock market bubble that caused the french revolution, this story is the story of booms and busts as it's never told before.
      With the world in the grip of the biggest financial crisis since the great depression there's never been a better time to understand the ascent - or descent - of money.
