Bread, cash, dosh, dough, loot: Call it what you like, it matters. To Christians, love of it is the root of all evil. To generals, it's the sinews of war. To revolutionaries, it's the chains of labour. But in The Ascent of Money, Niall Ferguson shows that finance is in fact the foundation of human progress. What's more, he reveals financial history as the essential back-story behind all history.©2008 Niall Ferguson (P)2009 WF Howes Ltd Global Financial Crisis Economic History Money World Banking Economics Capitalism US Economy Great Recession Taxation War Socialism
