It’s a wealth of understanding for understanding wealth

Combines breadth of scholarship with a wealth of practical experience in tackling the most elusive of economic subjects - the nature of money

Martin’s remarkable book, Money, is economic history – and indeed cultural anthropology – with a difference... His sparkling book is worth taking seriously

We should ask ourselves not just: what is the euro?; but also: what is money? An excellent new book, Money, written by the macro-economist Felix Martin, does just this

Felix Martin condenses the broadest of subjects into a searing and potentially life-changing read that destroys all accepted knowledge of this thing we sell our souls for

The virtue of Martin’s book is that it exposes the deep flaws in the way we have traditionally thought about money. The exposition is clear… Fresh

I’m going to read Money by Felix Martin. I’m determined to find out how it works

Stimulating and timely

Since the banking crisis, masses of books arrive every week. Scanning them all would be incompatible with eating and sleeping... Much the most entertaining is just called Money

Entertaining

Two chapters in, I realized that this was the book I needed when I was having conversations during the Occupy movement, and friends were all trying to understand what had happened and what we wanted to happen differently, and I think if I had read this at the time I would have had more language and stories to talk about that whole argument

A very spritely and lucid and well written book

Covers a vast geographical and historical spread

Like a thriller writer, Martin inserts little hooks at the end of his chapters for the next section – and he deserves…credit for creating a readable work on such a potentially bone-dry subject

Martin tells an interesting story and his diagnosis is persuasive

Engrossing

This book is a great read, and one that I think non-economists will find completely accessible… The historical detail is fascinating, and the ideas they are used to illustrate are clear and thought provoking, so I’m very glad I read it

[Martin] demonstrates a capacity both for wit and literary style in this engaging, timely history

An entertaining history of one of the most powerful, misunderstood forces in the world around us. Not one of those awful books about how to get rich

A wonderfully original and entertaining history of money. If you have ever wondered why the whole system seems so dangerously and chronically unstable, this is the book to read

Splendid

This is an excellent book to read, full of interesting history and insight, and very clear and well written... A beautiful and sometimes even entrancing study of human thought about money

An important insight into how finance and economics blindsided each other in the runup to the financial crisis

Startling insights in clear, intelligent prose… You will emerge better informed, and also surprisingly entertained

A terrific analysis

Money isn’t just an entertaining read, it’s also really useful

A thought-provoking book
