Description
Richard Holden examines the forces that are redefining the concept of money, exploring how low interest rates, mobile money, and cryptocurrencies are shaping the future of finance.
Holden delves into the stories of influential figures, including Janet Yellen, Vitalik Buterin, and Raghuram Rajan, to understand the impact of these forces on the global economy and politics.
He investigates the infrastructure of digital transactions, the currencies that underpin them, and the international monetary system, ultimately asking whether governments can control these powerful forces.
