Dazzling ... extraordinarily timely (Martin Vander Weyer Spectator )

A whistle-stop tour of the historical events that gave us the financial system we have today ... To Niall Ferguson's list of talents we can now add great timing (Stephanie Flanders Mail on Sunday )

Ferguson is the most brilliant British historian of his generation ... he writes with splendid panache (Times )

Ferguson's powers are on formidable display (Tristram Hunt Observer )

Wonderfully accessible ... Ferguson is spot on (Allister Heath Literary Review )

A fine history ... told with verve and insight (Daily Telegraph )

One of the world's leading historians (Hamish McRae Independent )
Review
`Niall Ferguson has written a fascinating, accessible, and important book that lives up to its rather grandiose title ... It goes from cowrie shells to mortgage-backed securities, and everything in between ... this is an exceptional book.' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
