The History of Money by Jack Weatherford

3.0

This is a very entry-level book, and I would be careful about reading this because he makes lots of snap judgments. I needed a chill book to read during my exam season and this was a good one. Maybe this is a good pickup book for someone who hasn't read in a while but it is not that substantial. I liked his analysis of the currency system in antiquity and enjoyed his prescient take on electronic money. Overall, a simple book but still worth a read depending on your level of understanding.
