The object of our desires. The engine of our genius. Humanity’s greatest invention. Money is everything. It brings freedom and it takes it away. It inspires and corrupts us. But what is money? Is it the main thing holding us back from utopia or is it the one constant that’s driven us to success? In his illuminating, entertaining and often surprising book, economist David McWilliams charts the relationship between humans and money – from clay tablets in Mesopotamia to coins in Ancient Greece, from mathematics in the medieval Arab world to the French Revolution, and from the emergence of the US dollar right up to today’s cryptocurrency. Along the way, we meet a host of characters who have innovated with money, disrupting society and transforming the way we live. Like humanity, money is ever changing, adapting to its time and circumstances. The question is, over the last 5000 years, have we changed money or has money changed us? Money tells an astonishing new story of our species. Taking the reader on an epic journey through the history of money, McWilliams reveals its fundamental role in our society. ‘An impressive journey that fizzes with facts’ ECONOMIST ‘An eye-opening history of what makes the world go round’ EVENING STANDARD ‘David McWilliams is the best explainer of economics I know’ SIMON KUPER ‘Compelling, funny and original’ KATJA HOYER ‘If, as David McWilliams complains, economists take the fun out of money, then he is the exception that proves the rule: a man who could not write a boring sentence if he tried’ TOM HOLLAND

   Starving Billionaires: The History of Inflation and HyperInflation: How Governments and People Battled the Last 10 Great Inflations by Kendrick Fernandez

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/538438 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/538438) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Starving Billionaires: The History of Inflation and HyperInflation: How Governments and People Battled the Last 10 Great Inflations Author: Kendrick Fernandez Narrator: Dave Wright Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 57 minutes Release date: March 9, 2024 Genres: Economics Publisher's Summary: Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man. This quote, by a popular former US President, reflects the suffering of millions of innocent victims of runaway inflation and hyperinflation throughout history. The reality of hyperinflations is exponential price increases, worthless currency, and food shortages. They are normally preceded by war, revolution, famine, or pandemics. In some cases, they are the results of decades of fiscal malpractice. Inflation has become a prominent subject of discussion in the United States and across the world. There have been dozens of recorded hyperinflations in modern history. The most devastating hyperinflation happened just after World War II in one of the Axis powers when prices surged by 4.19 quintillion percent. One quintillion is one followed by 29 zeros. Prices doubled every few hours. The most recent hyperinflation episode has been happening in Venezuela since 2016. America has never had hyperinflation, but they came close twice. This book looks at ten prominent hyperinflations across history. We look at what led to the hyperinflation, the first troubling signs, and government malpractices. We also pay close attention to life for the common man, life for wealthy Government officials, and popular inflation hedges employed by people and businesses. Finally, we look at how the country attempted to solve the inflation problem and deleverage the currency. Here’s What’s Included In this book: How HyperInflation led to the rise of Hitler and World War II How HyperInflation led to the most significant Revolution in History How Ancient HyperInflations led to serfdom in the Middle Ages How two Great US Inflations almost destroyed the country and its future How North Korea recently tackled HyperInflation Common patterns among all HyperInflations

   The Genius of Israel: The Surprising Resilience of a Divided Nation in a Turbulent World by Saul Singer, Dan Senor

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/501962 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/501962) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Genius of Israel: The Surprising Resilience of a Divided Nation in a Turbulent World Author: Saul Singer, Dan Senor Narrator: Dan Senor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 38 minutes Release date: November 7, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Economics Publisher's Summary: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * How has a small nation of 9 million people, forced to fight for its existence and security since its founding and riven by ethnic, religious, and economic divides, proven resistant to so many of the societal ills plaguing other wealthy democracies? Why do Israelis have among the world’s highest life expectancies and lowest rates of “deaths of despair” from suicide and substance abuse? Why is Israel’s population young and growing while all other wealthy democracies are aging and shrinking? How can it be that Israel, according to a United Nations ranking, is the fourth happiest nation in the world? Why do Israelis tend to look to the future with hope, optimism, and purpose while the rest of the West struggles with an epidemic of loneliness, teen depression, and social decline? Dan Senor and Saul Singer, the writers behind the international bestseller Start-Up Nation, have long been students of the global innovation race. But as they spent time with Israel’s entrepreneurs and political leaders, soldiers and students, scientists and activists, ultra-Orthodox Jews, Tel Aviv techies, and Israeli Arabs, they realized that they had missed what really sets Israel apart. Moving from military commanders integrating at-risk youth and people who are neurodiverse into national service, to high performing companies making space for working parents, from dreamers and innovators launching a duct-taped spacecraft to the moon, to bringing better health solutions to people around the world, The Genius of Israel tells the story of a diverse people and society built around the values of service, solidarity, and belonging. Widely admired for having the world’s highest density of high-tech start-ups, Israel’s greatest innovation may not be a technology at all, but Israeli society itself. Understanding how a country facing so many challenges can be among the happiest provides surprising insights into how we can confront the crisis of community, human connectedness, and purpose in modern life. Bold, timely, and insightful, Senor and Singer’s latest work shines an important light on the impressive innovative distinctions of Israeli society—and what other communities and countries can learn.
