Todo el dinero del mundo

It's hard to imagine a world without money. Every country has its own currency, hyperspace has several, and life is a constant transaction. Not only economic, although it almost always follows that logic, which we call capitalism. We spend money even without leaving home, and some earn it without doing anything. This book, in fact, is dedicated to "the 99%" (who work so hard, or would like to work).For as long as money has existed, however, there has been a dispute about what it is, whether it is an end in itself or just a means, a thing or an idea, a blessing or a doom.Endless pages have been written on the history, philosophy and sociology of money. Is it the tickets or the balance in an account? And who invented it? Is it true that it moves the world? So who rules us? This book explains, among other things, what trade was like before money, helps to unravel issues as thorny as the unfair distribution of wealth and summarizes, in an entertaining way, a reflection as old as the world's oldest trade.
