In \u003ci\u003eMoney\u003c\/i\u003e, renowned economist John Kenneth Galbraith cuts through the confusions surrounding the subject to present a compelling and accessible account of a topic that affects us all. He tells the fascinating story of money, the key factors that shaped its development, and the lessons that can be learned from its history. He describes the creation and evolution of monetary systems and explains how finance, credit, and banks work in the global economy. Galbraith also shows that, when it comes to money, nothing is truly new--least of all inflation and fraud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Kenneth Galbraith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691171661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691171661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 1.10d","brand":"John Kenneth Galbraith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946954391807,"sku":"9780691171661","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7d3cc426-f06c-474a-a540-9f3f8f8d1a13.jpg?v=1681515887","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/money-john-kenneth-galbraith-9780691171661","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
