The essays in the book raise basic questions concerning exchange - what is exchanged, who exchanges and how, which kind of currency is used, and indeed what is money and how does it convey \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e retain value over time. These issues are all classical objects of economic theory, but less often have they been approached from a cultural perspective. Works treating economic and monetary issues from a cultural perspective are few and far apart, and this book aims to contribute to such a perspective with a variety of approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan Ramon Resina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032208821\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032208824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Joan Ramon Resina","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065328120063,"sku":"9781032208824","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5317f689-616a-46da-a282-98de28a6794a.jpg?v=1768674469","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cultures-of-currencies-joan-ramon-resina-9781032208824","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
