Therefore, I never cared or cared too little. Money seemed some artifact of life similar to those other many life's ingredients. Money seemed compared to politics of -isms a relatively fair arbiter, having for all the same value. How naive. How badly misread. The first decade of this century teaches us all what money can, yet not sufficiently what money is. To fill that gap, you may want to consult Professor Nail Ferguson's book The Cash nexus written before the closing of the last century /sounds distant, but is not/. Perhaps, the history of money in the different forms of existence, could become in his writing one of the most fascinating stories across the ages. The hunt for money as eloquently reflected by Ferguson was a huge enterprise throughout the modern history of the West. Inspiration to humane ingenuity rarely aiming for noblility the business of trading with money,development of money derivatives and increasing efficacy of money circulation drawing bigger and bigger circles served great many useful and despicable goals. Mr. Ferguson succeeds to view history through the prism of the finance. Although certrainly not the only historical motif, finance seemed to play the most decisive role in a fair number of historical events. How charming! What a surprise to find out for a layman. Mr. Ferguson's book should be read by all who strive to make a sense out of the recent financial turmoils. Only the historical context provided in great detail by Ferguson allows to a layperson to begin to grasp what the power game of the financial markets is about. A humbling experience.
